Built in the early 1900s, this grand old dame has been lovingly cared for by the same custodians for almost forty years. Over that time, they have tastefully restored and thoughtfully updated this magnificent home to the home it is today, which stands proudly overlooking the glorious beaches of the Bass Strait.
About the home…
Beautifully updated and impeccably maintained, this stunning residence radiates sunshine and warmth from its Northerly aspect and graceful layout. Steeped in history, many of its original features remain, including soaring high ceilings with picture rails, original doors and ceiling roses, elegant skirting boards, and the charming front entrance archway.
There are three generous sized bedrooms, all with built-in robes, including a brand-new robe in the master suite. The kitchen, formal lounge, sitting room and two of the bedrooms all feature the original fireplace surrounds, a nostalgic reminder of yesteryear.
Overlooking a splendid back yard, the kitchen is every chef's dream. With abundant bench space, stone benchtops, a 6-burner Smeg gas cooktop, and a spacious pantry, this kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful. Through French doors, you'll find the Northerly facing entertaining deck, complete with a large fixed umbrella and picturesque outlook, this is the perfect spot to relax or host friends while taking in the enchanting gardens and views.
Further living spaces include a formal lounge, a cosy sitting room, and a sunroom that captures the sunshine all day long, ideal for unwinding after a busy day. In keeping with the home's classic charm, the owners have also restored both the main bathroom and the ensuite. Designed to complement one another, they feature elegant marble tiles, spacious showers, luxurious vanities, and a deep bathtub in the main - bathrooms that could easily grace the pages of a design magazine.
