'Nestlebrae' - an Exceptional Block Fronted Italianate Victorian Villa circa 1880.

In an elevated position and superbly presented following a devoted restoration plus the creation of a flawless extension, this splendidly spacious home faithfully retains not only its original delicate lace around its verandah, but also its magnificent original roses and cornices on the 13'3" high ceilings.

Bright and light throughout with tall windows and maintaining its original 130 year old character in the 4 large bedrooms, grand lounge room with a huge bow window and formal dining room with wainscoting. Renovations have included updating the ensuite, family bathroom and large laundry with a powder room (3rd toilet). The modern kitchen adjoins the dining room and includes Smeg appliances, granite bench tops and splash backs plus an island bench facing the stunningly proportioned family room with an adjoining huge rumpus room and a study/office.

Special features range from an impressive front door surrounded by coloured glass and opening to an impressive central wide hall with beautifully polished Baltic boards, pairs of double doors to a large sunny rear entertainment deck off the family and rumpus rooms, plus landscaped gardens. The main bedroom includes a walk-in robe and traditionally styled ensuite with a leadlight window; there is an excellent family bathroom. Also; open fireplaces and mantelpieces, gas ducted heating plus a split system air-conditioner in the northern family room, and an alarm.
