Federation was a time for prosperity in Australia and this was reflected in the magnificent architectural styles of this era...and beautifully captured in this solid red brick home in one of Colac's highly desired locations.
The local identity ...a jeweller who originally built Avington, would have been so very proud of the way this magnificent residence has stood the test of time and most importantly, brought so much enjoyment to the family who have cared for and nurtured this special home in the last two decades. Of course, Avington has undergone a major transformation since the 1900's ...sensitively restored and extended in 1991 to incorporate two levels, as well as hydronic heating, pure wool carpets, Tassie oak floors and superb bathrooms. The ground level hosts a beautifully appointed kitchen with a generous walk in pantry and delightful combined space for dining,
relaxing and the like; all with a lovely outlook onto the generous lawn and garden area. The block is approx 938sqm.
Upstairs is the perfect refuge for children (big and small), 2 bedrooms,
bathroom and living area (also fabulous storage in the attic). Two areas that are bound to be favourites in this gorgeous home is the main bedroom with a superb outlook to the Lake Oval, and also the more formal lounge room which has beautiful ornate windows. External features include a superb verandah with tessellated tiles, four car garage and the convenience of rear lane access.
Avington is in a class of its own with presentation and location.
