68-70 Brisbane Street, Berwick VIC 3806

Positioned within easy reach of the village precinct, schools, cafés and parklands, a rare opportunity exists to secure a significant Berwick home where period charm and modern comfort exist in complete harmony. Built Circa 1930’s for J.Gardiner, then the Shire Engineer, ‘Claremont’ enjoys a prestigious ridgeline position set amongst grounds on 2074m² (1/2 Acre). If he were alive today, we’re sure Mr Gardiner would heartily approve of the refurbishment that ‘Claremont’ has undergone. Its character has been respected and refined with a modern edge, offering approximately 35 squares (imp) of living. The home comprises four bedrooms including a generous master suite with walk in dressing room and superb ensuite. There’s a selection of beautifully proportioned living spaces, each with its own separation and intimacy. A central family space with a new wood fire anchors day to day activities. It’s adjoined by a luxe, ivory toned kitchen with matte finished marble benches, Gaggenau oven and integrated appliances. Floor to ceiling glass floods the casual meals area with morning sunshine and opens to a covered, sandstone paved entertainment terrace. Fully established gardens and grounds feature colorful plantings, hedged borders and lush rolling lawns (all irrigated via mains/bore/tank water). Additional features include red gum flooring stained with Japan black and walnut, original hardwood joinery, stunning custom light fittings, ducted heating + air-conditioning, integrated sound, gated entry/CCTV security along with a double carport and separate garage/studio + workshop. One of the Village’s truly iconic homes, now offered in absolutely premium condition.
