This classic piece of history is a thing of beauty and a bewildering sight, not just from the imposing facade but from every aspect inside the home as well. The grand scale co-exists with functionality of this over-sized family home with perfection, and provides accommodation for the extended family if needed.
With 4 massive bedrooms and 1 attic style room (with the provision of creating more if need be) it has the opportunity to use as a home office with separate entry to different areas of the house. The main entrance and foyer is mainly suited to family living as it does lead you into the stunning living and dining quarters where the scale of the home really comes to fruition. Master suite has ornate fireplace as a feature as well as private ensuite bathroom.
Full size kitchen is a delight to the budding chef, massive amounts of room will have you cooking up a storm while adjacent is the family/rumpus room where you can entertain in style (complete with fully functioning bar and wine storage).
Although situated on a very large corner allotment of over 1,000sqm, the home doesn’t leave a lot of open or time consuming space. The low maintenance grounds are made up of some alfresco entertaining area, a children’s play area and driveway plus carport space for loads of off-street parking.
All the expected character features of grand homes that were built with distinction in mind are all here. It portrays a huge amount of “wow” factor with its size and design and is a certain landmark for the area. While the home is in very good order, especially for its age, it does lend itself to further improvements and tasteful modernizing.
If you like character homes on a grand scale then I suggest that you put this on the “must see” list straight away.
