When you want to be impressed with a home, you want personality,
craftsmanship and style. All of these were bursting forth like songs from real
estate heaven at The Block 46B Regent St Elsternwick. Yours truly had
the enviable pleasure of being a guest in the fab tradesman domain of
scallywags and blockheads Sticks and Wombat.
Not only have these two captured the hearts of Real
Estate Reality Television viewing they have captured a classic facade home and
gilded it with charm.
Let's start with the timber look. For me, the featured timber
flooring throughout provides a sense of warmth and character that the boys have
complimented with a simple colour scheme. The quality and colour blending easily
with the furniture chosen by these two. We are no longer afraid to embrace
timber as it is a healthy cost effective floor solution for busy family homes.
It is easy to keep clean and essentially is damage proof for all families. So
this was a clever move by Sticks and Wombat to utilise this wonderful product
to showcase their skills.
Keeping kids active and challenged is all a part of parenting
life. I know it was one of my biggest parental challenges. So when I laid eyes
on one of the children's rooms I knew it would make any child leap with joy.
The clever design and the use of some great features including a cubby
style bunk bed, a special play space matched with the much talked about
climbing wall- leaves you in no doubt that Sticks and Wombat understand family
life. Sticks and Wombat's childhood
dreams echo through this part of the house.
The other bedrooms are stylish and well designed. The two double
bedrooms feature plantation shutters which are complemented by a simple colour scheme. 2017 The Block houses are all character homes and the
restoration factor is prominent at 46A Regent St including
a much admired fireplace. The main bathrooms servicing these bedrooms are
spacious and inviting. Again an easy colour scheme allows any future
owner to add their own personality.
Clever use of a classic timber bed and the warmth of quality
carpets make the main bedroom a very inviting space for any parent. Incorporating
a parents retreat, or third living space is particularly inviting. The window
furnishings compliment the theme. The wardrobe features have been well thought
out and the expansive bathroom is simple yet stylish. Again an easy
colour scheme will allow anyone who buys the home the chance to add their
character and style.
The study area is compact and well designed. Again timber is a
welcome texture to this space. The ergonomic design of the desk, which Sticks
and Wombat are rightly very proud of, easily becomes a stand-up workspace -
smart right? With more and more people working from home - a dedicated space is
a convenience addition.
There are loads of great features and clever design elements in Sticks and Wombats home for sale. For anyone contemplating buying one of The Block homes this one is stands out with its workmanship and special features. Tomorrow let's discuss the family spaces and the kitchen. And it's definitely not too late for any serious buyers to get through this house.
