From Lord Mayors to Mining Magnates, from a Lighting Company to a Coach Line, an Alderman to an Artist to and now our local Solicitor requires us to find a new owner to continue the story of "Huntingdon."
The life of Huntingdon is astonishing and the character & history is felt at it's strength as you wander down the 12m hallway, peering through open cedar doors at original double hung casement windows. The creak of original wide floorboards act like roundabouts to direct you through any of the french doors to reveal another marble fireplace, crystal chandelier or ceiling rose.
The 4m ceilings are necessary to provide perspective to the 5-6m long bedrooms, the timber kitchen has been crafted by Athol Crispin in a fashion to represent this period of home along with matching cabinetry in the laundry and the main bathroom, whilst the screened verandah room takes its time absorbing the morning Northern sun overlooking the grand size swimming pool that features dive depth at one end.
The home has a large sundeck at the rear of the home which is accessed through an air conditioned social room and overlooks a half size tennis court - perfect for the guests as they arrive for their afternoon tea and scones.
An age old fig tree casts a wary eye over this 1975m2 site in the heart of Mary Street. Due to
the existing foliage there is an air of privacy and reclusivity that is only appreciated upon entering this property.
Huntingdon is a pleasure to market and I am
sure you will appreciate this bastion of Graftons history and character.
It as been said that the early owners of this property were "worthy pioneers of the early days who have left their seal of usefulness on the history of the fair city of Grafton."
We now seek a new pioneer for "Huntingdon," we welcome your inspection 7 days a week by appointment.
