Constructed circa 1920, ‘Carlyle’ was built with style and substance and is now better than ever, having maintained the timeless character features and blended with modern living and with an extension that was expertly constructed to complement the ever popular bungalow architecture. It has been a much loved, and much enjoyed, home for the same family for nearly 40 years.
Some of the original character features include bluestone, decorative timberwork, lofty ornate ceilings, leadlight windows, open fireplaces, picture rails, timber wall panelling, polished floorboards and more.
The generous accommodation consists of 5 bedrooms plus an office, formal lounge room, separate formal dining room, large stunning kitchen with adjoining family/meals, lobby/computer area, rumpus room and 2 sparkling bathrooms (3 toilets). Other areas include an inglenook, the small private area off the lounge room and an excellent underground wine cellar.
Outdoor entertaining options abound. Whether it be on the roomy front verandah overlooking the beautiful front garden, or around the bar-b-que area or in the superbly equipped outdoor entertaining room, affectionately known as ‘The Cabana’. This area has glass stacker doors providing all year ‘round options of open air in the warmer months, or a cosy space when it gets cooler.
