Live on the quiet side of Hillcrest nestled in the midst of high quality established homes. Living close to Berkley Normal School and in zone for Hillcrest High marks this as a long-term family home. It's a short drive or walk to the University, shops and New World supermarket. And, the nearby main trunk lines make this is a convenient base for your daily commute. This one requires your full attention so read on.

You'll arrive home each day to attractive street appeal. 12 Berkley Ave is a four bedroom brick home encircled by a rambling beautiful garden creating a haven of calm. Established trees provide good shade and there's a good selection of fruit trees out back. Next to the living area is a patio bordered with lush greenery. This provides a quiet spot for an evening drink and contemplation. When you visit I'd invite you to sit down, relax and let the peaceful setting draw you in. If the family needs room to let off steam, there's plenty of space to run while safe for little ones and pets. The section is 809m2, the entire Berkley Normal School field lies beyond a gate, and Jansen Park is a 3-minute walk. A garage and workshop are complemented by a carport for your off-street parking.

It's rare to find a home that marries the 60's style with a crisp contemporary makeover but this is a special home. You'll feel instantly connected as the front entrance welcomes you into the main living area. The design maximises the flow of everyday family function, formality, and fun. At this end are the lounge, dining and a modern kitchen. The rest of the downstairs contains three double bedrooms and a main bathroom. A stairwell leads to a second floor with quite possibly the largest master bedroom you'll see this year. There's space enough for the present owners to have an office and gym area but the possibilities are endless. Next to this room is the ensuite and a sizeable walk-in wardrobe. You'll wake up to a north-facing balcony, the best spot to enjoy the morning sun with a coffee or relax watching sunsets.
