From the street, 329 Warnervale Rd, Hamlyn Terrace, looks like a completely normal home — but beyond the fence, there’s a surprise sure to get any Aussie bloke (or sheila) hot and bothered.
The property’s epic “man shed,†decorated in the style of an outback pub, is beyond anything you’d expect from your average brick and tile four-bedder — and it’ll appeal to any buyer who loves an ice cold brew.
A typical man cave is usually a solitary spot, but the property’s listing agent said the home’s sellers largely used the space to enjoy a cold one with friends and family.
The vendors are a couple whose kids have moved out, and unsurprisingly, the man of the house took the lead on the home pub.
“They put it in to entertain,†Kim Burke of Wiseberry Charmhaven said, adding that the shed’s mastermind, a big hophead, is just as keen on quality and variety as he is on quantity.
“He likes travelling and trying the different beers and all that,†she said.
She suggested the room came together organically, fuelled by a love of beer and the Aussie pub aesthetically.
“They really just put in the bar, everything else is just his,†Ms Burke said.
â€He just collects everything — as much as possibly can.â€
As well as an at-home drinking hole, the home has a lot of other features sure to appeal to a busy family.
“It’s close to the schools, shops, the train station,†Ms Burke said.
“The family room has a big fireplace, and there’s new carpet.â€
As well as the family room and the famous shed, there are plenty of other entertaining spaces, including a living room and formal dining and lounge rooms.
Four bedrooms and two bathrooms create plenty of space for the kids, and a 706sqm block gives them room to run any some excess energy.
The property is listed with a price guide of $630,000 — $690,000, and can be inspected by appointment.
