THE DEAL
Set on a substantial 1,406sqm block, this Federation-era residence is one of Ascot’s most significant homes, a property that combines historic character with contemporary luxury and equestrian excellence. Built in 1914 and beautifully preserved, it retains its restored tuck-pointed façade, leadlight front entry and exquisite period detailing, while an architecturally designed extension delivers the space and comfort required for modern family living.
Inside, four principal rooms showcase wide jarrah floorboards, soaring ceilings and three fireplaces, all testament to the home’s remarkable preservation across 111 years. Decorative leadlights and coloured glass enhance the historic character, while the transition to expansive open-plan living, dining and kitchen zones crowned by cathedral ceilings reflects a home designed for both everyday living and entertaining. From here, doors open to a broad covered patio and shady landscaped gardens, creating a private retreat at the heart of the property.
Returning inside, the home is enhanced by contemporary luxuries including polished concrete floors with underfloor heating, ducted smart air conditioning, electric blinds, intelligent lighting and wiring, and a high-spec G4 Zip tap delivering sparkling, boiling and chilled water.
Sustainability and efficiency are addressed with a 20kW solar system, upgraded 3-phase power, a 20A car charging point, bore reticulation and water-wise landscaped gardens planted with mature fruit trees, wisteria, jasmine and grape vines.
The equestrian facilities are of outstanding quality. Purpose-built brick stables with soaring rooflines, excellent ventilation, covered pens and open yards are licensed for six horses. The complex is self-sufficient, with a kitchenette, toilet, shower, sauna and independent hot water system, offering exceptional amenity for both horses and handlers.
Security and convenience are assured with a 4K AI Dahua surveillance system, double automated gates with intercom, and dual vehicle access via a sweeping horseshoe driveway. Additional highlights include a smart parcel drop box, water softener and a synthetic-turfed gym or play area, all carefully integrated into the property’s grounds.
