A home with a split personality! Eight Elvendon Street, The Gap, has personality plus, which becomes self-evident as soon as you enter the lower level. The owners have devoted five years, to transform a once tired and useless space beneath the home into remodelling perfection, equipping it with a stylish kitchen complete with gas stove and oven, rangehood, dishwasher and shared dining and living area.However, the work didn't stop there. There's also a split-system AC unit to cool the entire level, a modern bathroom with floor-to-ceiling gleaming white tiles housing a vanity with backlit mirror, toilet and open shower, opening through a unique sliding wooden door, all looking out through a large picture window that makes the most of the light and airy location. There's even a laundry and two utility rooms, with one being used as a home office, the other with gym gear. It's the epitome of a fabulous, fully-equipped living area.A short flight of upward stairs leads to another special feature, before reaching the original upper level, which is a timber-floored sunroom with ceiling fan that takes in views of the entire backyard which is fully turfed, fenced, has a thriving herb garden, and is ringed with tall bamboo on the left and rear of the property for the ultimate in natural growing privacy.Once upstairs, you'll enter into the second kitchen with views to the backyard and with an electric oven and range, dishwasher and access to plumbing for another washing machine. The living area is light, bright and expansive with a wall-mounted split-system AC unit, sliding doors to a generously sized south-facing front deck, and the start of timber floors that run throughout the upper level with the exception of the main bathroom which is tiled and equipped with a shower, tub, toilet and sink.Three bedrooms, two with wardrobes but all with ceiling fans, are within close proximity with more storage space along the hallway. The master bedroom is what you'd expect to find in a home of this calibre with its own ensuite, plus a Panasonic split-system AC unit to tame the rising summer temperatures at night.
