"St Merryn"

A rare & exciting opportunity to acquire this unique two storey historic 1880's bluestone residence, which was formerly part of "Dimora Mansion" facing East Terrace and built by Sir Henry Ayers in 1882.
Once you step inside the low-maintenance grounds, it is abundantly clear that this well-loved home is something 'very special'. The home sits on approximately 390 square metres of private grounds, encompassing an 'English Style' garden, paved paths, calming water feature and a vine-covered, 'Tuscan-inspired' terrace an ideal spot for intimate summer lunches and 'Al Fresco' entertaining.
Just left of the entrance foyer is the elegant lounge room. A set of etched-glass & painted-timber French doors open from the lounge to the large, open-plan style family & office.
The well-equipped chefs kitchen was renovated approximately 5 years ago. It is fitted with practical and stylish 'Beechwood-toned' cabinetry. There is a large central island bench/4-person breakfast bar with caesarstone bench-tops and a wide, stainless steel Smeg gas cooktop. Appliances also include a stainless steel Miele steamer, Smeg wall oven & Miele dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a 'conservatory-style' living area with wonderful west facing windows.
There are 3 bedrooms. The air-conditioned indulgent master suite provides a luxurious all-white near-new en-suite (including freestanding bath), his/hers walk-in robe, romantic open fireplace and access to a magnificent under-cover terrace balcony.
Stroll to the mecca of cosmopolitan activity on Hutt Street, Rundle Street (including Cinemas) & the glorious east parklands. The home is also close to popular private Schools, Wakefield Hospital & St. Andrews Hospital.
A truly 'elegant & privately screened' residence moments to everything!
