Situated close to the Mersey River, off River Road on the way to Latrobe this home was built in 1960, has a colourful history and many a story to tell….
The house needs some TLC but has many a grand feature with Tasmanian Oak floorboards, stunning old fire places with timber mantels, ornate cornices, ceiling roses plus glorious large windows that look out over the beautiful Mersey River. On just under an acre the home could well be your next project.
The house has 3 good sized bedrooms, plus a further room with a gorgeous outlook that can be a rumpus/4th bedroom or what ever else your family needs. The large living area is north facing with a separate lounge room and an open plan dining and kitchen. The kitchen has had a revamp but still more could be done to improve this area… perhaps open the dining up with double doors to a glorious outdoor alfresco dining area. (STCA). This home is a blank canvas and is only limited to your imagination.
The yard tells many a story with the most (and I mean most) amazing shed. Rumour has it that the structure was once the old Sheffield Police Station. You actually have to see this shed to believe it.
The yard has a range of stunning vintage trees, paths and a pretty funky outdoor BBQ area. The balcony along the front of the house is also where you will find some pretty spectacular views out over the river.
There are a couple of other out buildings and two driveways, one to the top of the house and the other giving you access to the bottom of the house.
This home is just waiting to be restored to it's former beauty and with the great shed and fabulous gardens/grounds this home is perfect for those with a reno in mind.
Please phone the listing agent Wendy Squibb to arrange a private inspection.
