period features

WITHa recent drop in asking price, there has never been a better time to consider this beautiful Federation home.

The character home has been tastefully decorated to showcase all its period features while complementing its modern conveniences, says consultant Debbie Burgess.

Passing by the enclosed verandah, through the front door, you will be transported back to 1920 when the home was built.

Details such as high ceilings, picture rails and gorgeous working fireplaces in all three bedrooms and the formal dining room have been retained.

Alongside these period characteristics there is also a thoroughly modern feel to the home due to a recent extension and update.

The extension at the rear of the property includes a sunny living area with floor-to-ceiling windows which look out onto the landscaped gardens and patio.

View the wide variety of fruit trees including a peach, apricot, fig, cumquat, lemon and lime from this cosy room which is kept warmvia the heat pump.

Amodern bathroom with the shower over the bath and a laundry hidden behind bi-fold doors completes the new section of the house.

Throughout the original section of the home you can find polished Tasmanian oak floorboards and neutral tones with the occasional spalsh of blue.

Located in the heart of the home is the kitchen with stone benchtops and a colourful pantry with leadlight doors.

Surrounded bymanyother beautiful period homes, the house is located in centralNewTown, just minutes away from shops and services.

Also included is a carport and off street parking for several vehicles, panel heating and a large garden shed with work bench in the leafy backyard.
