Family sanctuary of light and luxury
Beyond the gorgeous facade with its distinctive fretwork, this remarkable residence showcases three generous bedrooms with built-in robes all complemented by a luxurious central bathroom with a double vanity & frameless shower and a second bathroom/laundry.
Bathed in natural light, the home also includes an elegant front lounge leading through to the open-design living/dining areas accompanied by a Corian-bench kitchen complete with quality cooking appliances and Miele dishwasher.
Ducted heating, split-system air conditioning, additional ceiling fans and comprehensive security all add to the appeal, along with original Art Deco ceilings, lead-light windows, stained timberwork and solid hardwood floors.
Bi-folds seamlessly connect the living area and alfresco entertaining deck looking out to a north-facing oasis including large workshop, automated irrigation system and 10,000L capacity water tanks, plus two front off-street parking spaces via the remote-control gate.
A short stroll to Regent Station, along with local buses, popular cafes and Crispe Park, it’s also close to a range of schools (zoned to Reservoir West PS and Preston HS), High Street specialty shops and Preston Market.
Owners Notes
What we love about this home:
Welcome to our family home at 48 Powell Street, where we’ve lived happily for over 12 years. It has been the backdrop to many treasured memories, and while it’s hard to say goodbye, we’re excited for the next owners to love it as much as we have.
From the moment you step inside, the home feels warm, quiet, and easy to live in—something guests often remark on. The street itself is equally special, with wonderful long‑term neighbours who look out for one another and stop for friendly chats on summer days. Over time, many have become close friends.
The house blends original Art Deco charm with thoughtful modern updates and is completely turnkey, with nothing to do unless you wish to extend or reconfigure. In 2025, the home was freshly painted inside and out, with a new concrete driveway, automated side‑by‑side parking gate, smart lighting and security— all controllable via your phone, including monitoring pets in the backyard.
The garden is a much‑loved highlight: private, lush, and low‑maintenance, with water tanks and automated irrigation. It attracts abundant birdlife and feels like a peaceful escape. We’ve enjoyed countless family gatherings on the deck, which is perfect for morning sun—especially appreciated by our dog, Snickers.
Inside, the bedrooms are quiet and restful, with added storage above wardrobes to maximise space.
What do you love about the area?
Location‑wise, it’s been unbeatable: Regent Station is a four‑minute walk with an easy commute (Approximately 26mins) to the CBD, while Preston Market and Woolworths are both around 15 minutes away on foot.
We wish you all the very best with your purchase and are happy to assist with any questions via the agent.
Good luck.
