Some properties have the unique ability to offer a nostalgic glimpse into the grace and charm of a bygone era – this heritage haven, nestled amongst established gardens and manicured lawns, does exactly that.
A cherished home which has been richly restored without losing its old-world character, expect to fall instantly in love with its enduring beauty, mixed with modern touches. An original hallway, crowned by 11 foot ceilings greets you, with other period features including timber floorboards, gables, an open fireplace and mantel, panelled walls and ceilings feature throughout. Yet, the needs of today are also present, with a contemporary, light-filled kitchen on hand to service the home. Equipped with excellent storage, stone bench tops, neutral colour tones and with as-new electric cook top, electric oven and dishwasher, cooking or entertaining will be an easy affair. Two bathrooms are renovated as well, with first class fittings and fixtures, while one original bathroom remains, ready for you to put your own personal touches to it.
There’s ample room to relax, with a formal lounge room with original open fire and mantel with two other versatile rooms suitable as extra living zones (or even another bedroom!). French doors off the kitchen/living area lead to the sun-kissed, north-facing merbau timber deck, fringed by private gardens plus another enclosed verandah is a quaint place to retreat to and soak up views of the lush greenery.
The home also hosts four generous sized bedrooms, a separate studio with easy access to the main dwelling, wood heater, numerous reverse cycle air conditioners, a single carport, plus storeroom/workshop.
Situated on a fenced 814m2 block with dual street access, this weatherboard gem resides in a ‘blue-chip’ location, only a short stroll to the CBD. Set amongst some of the City’s most prestige and tightly held residences, it’s a home you’ll be proud to call yours for generations to come. Arrange your inspection today.
