This home is a knock out, proudly set on a corner allotment with quiet and easy side access to plenty of off street parking. The home is surrounded by a high rendered wall that ensures security and safety from the road making this a perfect haven for all the family. The current owners are only the third family to occupy this home which only confirms that this is a family castle that you really won't want to leave. It is a great home to bring up the kids and a home that accommodates the older kids and extended family with the separate quarter's option and all that off street parking. The one bedroom studio has a separate bedroom, living/dine and bathroom with a garden outlook.
The period features are impressive with ornate archways in the hallway, original fireplaces, giant cedar doors and sash windows with original leadlight, ornate cornices and skirting boards, 12' ceilings, magnificent ceiling roses, brass door handles, picture rails and even the original servants bells that was once used to signal the troops in at dinner time. Baltic flooring, original cedar robes and built in wall units add to the warmth and practicality of this beautiful home.
The kitchen is high quality timber with granite bench-tops and splashbacks, top appliances and plenty of room for all the family to enjoy a hearty meal together. The living room flows on from the family kitchen and is again of large proportions and features a stunning marble fireplace and access to the return verandah. This set up is perfect when entertaining as guests can spread out on those balmy summer nights. From the kitchen you also have easy access to the undercover area to the rear of the home where you can entertain as many people as you desire. The second bathroom is perfectly located for guests. The cellar is adjacent to the kitchen and is an impressive size. A great place to store those bottles of collector's wines or all those preserves you are going to want to make with the abundance of fresh fruit picked from your very own fruit trees.
The home is well insulated naturally with solid stone wall construction and 3 phase reverse cycle ducted heating and cooling.
The garden is full of fragrant roses and an abundance of mighty healthy fruit trees. These include 2 mandarin, an early and late variety, nectarine, apricot, mango, lemon, fig, 4 grape varieties, persimmon and plum. Don't be put off by the road as this castle is protected by a giant wall that buffers any sound and keeps the kids nice and safe. The stone used to build this place are so thick that nothing today could ever compare. The workmanship and attention paid in its time has truly lasted and will be here for generations to come. It is time for another family to enjoy the good life in this magnificent home.
