Timeless appeal and an inner town address
Built circa 1893, this beautiful period home has all the elegance and grace typical of the Victorian style.
The timeless façade with its broad verandah, cast iron lacework and steep roofline are endearing features still popular today.
11 foot ceilings, decorative mouldings, Baltic pine flooring and open fire places are original elements found within.
Sitting high on the elevated allotment, the home enjoys a superb vista across the township to the surrounding rural landscape and ranges beyond.
Three generous bedrooms, formal sitting room and a dining area are found in the original section of the home, a more recent extension and meticulous renovation includes a classic styled kitchen, family living area, beautifully appointed bathroom and a utilities room.
Further living space has been created by the addition of a fabulous covered alfresco complete with an inbuilt stainless steel barbeque, outdoor kitchen featuring a sink, dishwasher and bar fridges together with café blinds, a ceiling fan and heating for all year round entertaining.
Vehicle accommodation is provided by a triple remote controlled garage, accessed from the rear laneway.
An adjoining workshop and a separate wash bay with a roller door are further improvements.
The central entry hall is flanked by the formal sitting room and the three bedrooms, two with built-in robes.
Deep cornices and architraves, charming sash windows and lovely period fireplaces are features of these original rooms.
At the rear of the layout are the family living/dining area, kitchen, bathroom, powder room and the utilities room.
Black and white chequered flooring, black granite bench tops and white profile kitchen cabinetry are teamed with a ceramic farmhouse sink, Bosch dishwasher, plumbed fridge and an Ilve 900mm cooker, fitted snugly in the original fireplace.
A blend of period and modern elements are found in the bathroom with a gorgeous claw foot bath, oversized frameless shower with dual fittings and a stone topped, twin basin vanity.
From the living area, Bifold doors open to the alfresco, creating one large living space.
Modern conveniences include ducted gas heating, split system air conditioning, ceiling fans in the living areas, CCTV security system and exterior sensor lights, wall mounted television points and a high tech audio system throughout the home, including the alfresco and workshop.
The workshop also includes a separate toilet, wash tub, power and internet connections.
