This is a well-maintained rural homestead with strong period character — timber weatherboards, VJ-lined verandah and traditional joinery — combined with recent interior updates. It’s architecturally pleasing at a vernacular level and notable for its setting and amenities (tennis court, ponds), but it reads as a restored farmhouse rather than a bold, original architect-designed statement.
