Fall in love with this pretty weatherboard family home; enjoy the delightful style of the 1950s, with all the benefits of a high-end refurbishment. This 60-year old gem has been lovingly restored with great attention to detail, in its rural country setting. The house has been neutrally decorated sympathetic to the era and refurbished to a very high spec, including new insulation, split system, air con, ceiling fans, and period features such as original wooden sash windows, 3m high ceilings, original floorboards stained glass doors, light-fittings and stunning cornices and ceiling roses.
The grounds have been professionally landscaped with a pretty magnolia hedge that borders the front of the property. The approach to the house is through an entrance gate onto a brick lined gravel driveway that leads to a double car port surrounded cherry trees, giant ferns and an easy to maintain lawn. A line of standard roses frame the front of the house with its charming covered front verandah, reached via wooden steps up to the vintage double front door.
The main entrance opens into a generous hallway with master bedroom to the left and family room to the right. The light filled master bedroom has incredible cornicing, robes, and an en-suite shower room and the family room has a triple panel sash window with views out to the front of the property.
The adjoining kitchen / breakfast room can be separated off with period glass double doors and has R/C split system and a corner wood burner. Appliances include a Whirlpool oven, induction cooktop and Esatto dishwasher. A small sun-room (with glass doors leading to steps down to back garden) connects the kitchen to the laundry room and separate WC.
Beyond the open plan living area is a hallway with storage, a family bathroom with shower and bath, and two further double bedrooms both with fitted robes and ceiling fans.
The rear garden has a gate from the road that gives additional vehicle access to an American-style barn with two roller doors, ideal for caravan or boat, concrete floor, power and ample workbench/shelving. The low maintenance garden has a wonderful selection of fruit trees, raised veggie garden beds, a chook shed, Septech system and two water tanks (38,000 litres)
