Heritage homes just hit a little different don’t they? They captivate you from the moment you see them. Charming and enchanting, they draw you in and highlight the finer details of a bygone era of home building. From the timber floors all the way to the decorative cornices and ceiling details, there is a simple elegance that we are continually drawn to.
The stornaway.home is all of this and more. Sitting pretty as a picture for the last 97 years, complete with her own white picket fence, she sits beautifully in the sought after Queanbeyan Heritage Conservation Area. Sun pours in through colourful led-light windows as it moves its way around the home through the day. High ceilings give her a sense of opulence while being quaint and delightful at every turn.
The main hallway draws you in past two bedroms and a front sitting room into the open plan updated kitchen and family room, complete with new Danish certified Nordic swan eco label ‘Morsø’ wood burning stove and seperate study area. The bathroom has the most enchanting clawfoot bath and subway tiling.
The surprises keep coming as you exit the home to the covered rear porch and into the garden, almost as if the stornaway.home is its own private homestead. A complete freestanding studio takes prime position facing north onto the fruit trees and veggie gardens, with its own living space, bedroom and bathroom. This adaptable space has been used by resident artisans and creators over the years and is definitely the stornaway.home’s hidden wildcard.
The interiors will leave you speechless. Heritage character is nurtured throughout the home, with original doors, fire places, timber flooring, sash windows and high ceilings. It’s a home that could stay exactly as it is for the decades to come, and it would continue to serve as a beautiful and endearing home in the heart of Queanbeyan.
