Originally built and owned by the Crafters themselves, this 1922 limestone/dolomite fronted home has been kept in pristine condition over its 100 year lifespan with only three families ever living in the property.
The bungalow style home has a neat, uniform layout with a long central hallway spanning the entire length of the original home. Recently renovated, the hallway maintains it's original character, with modern interpretations, featuring a custom built front door and locally designed and installed led light surrounds.
Four bedrooms branch off from the hallway, as well as a large living room, all with original baltic pine flooring and 11 foot ceilings.
The three main bedrooms have been tastefully resorted, respecting the homes' original character. These rooms feature wool carpet, custom built floor-to-ceiling wardrobes and restored fireplaces, complete with marble hearths.
The spacious farmhouse kitchen retains its original charm and is the perfect space for family gatherings. It features ample storage and offers limitless potential for renovations.
The home features a spacious main bathroom, practical laundry space with storage, along with an additional toilet.
The sunroom at the rear of the home works as a second living room or mud room and includes external roller shutters on all windows. A wood fire between the bathroom and kitchen warms the entire home throughout winter.
The modest home sits pretty and central on the spacicious acre allotment. The post and rail fencing throughout the property complements the meticulously landscaped gardens.
Spend time foraging in the original orchard on the north side of the property, among the citrus, fruit and nut trees.
An incredible feature of the property is the historic 1919 stone dairy, which has recently undergone partial renovations, providing opportunity for further development as a studio, work space or additional living area.
The carefully curated, European inspired courtyard is the perfect space to sit back and relax, enjoying pizza or a bbq with family and friends.
The lawns and gardens are maintained by a pop up and dripper watering system. A brand new unequipped bore is located alongside a preprepared shed site, with driveway access and sectioned off from the rest of the property. The site allows for a 20x12m shed and power conduit has already been laid from the home.
Other outdoor features include a potting shed/greenhouse, dog yards, garden shed and garage to fit two cars.
This Compton home, formally known as the property of "Dalveen" and once part of the historic Moorak Station, is an incredible piece of history waiting for its next chapter. The opportunity is yours. RLA 291953
