Winter suddenly doesn't look so bad as you unwind beside the fire in this gorgeous c1911 Edwardian. But this place is not all about indoors, as the sun starts to reappear, the solar-heated pool and private tropical gardens will come into their own.
One of few such homes remaining, this four-bedroom beauty is alive with original period detailing which has been thoughtfully complemented by contemporary comforts.
Soaring 12ft ceilings accented with beautiful pressed metal, timber panelling and picture rails remain as nostalgic reminders of the heritage. At the heart of the home, an elegant lounge with gas fireplace and fitted library conjures up images of cosy evenings; the refined dining room with exposed brick fireplace is perfect for dinners with friends. Catering for every event, the Caesarstone kitchen features quality stainless steel appliances plus the charm of an original cast iron combustion stove.
The three principal bedrooms including a tranquil ensuite master are located on the ground floor - hidden up in the roofline, the fourth bedroom provides versatile additional space. Including the bonus of a dedicated fitted study plus stunning family bathroom, the package is finalised by a laundry, ducted heating, split system cooling and oversized double garage with workshop.
With GRZ5 zoning and set on a 679sqm (approx.) corner allotment, the home is just a walk to the village & station and close to a range of quality schooling options
