This grand Dame, only a short walk to all the amenities of Trentham's thriving township, has undergone a full revival combining period charm with all the contemporary comforts required for country living.
The home set on a neat 452m2 exudes all the romance of a bygone era; sitting pretty amongst cottage garden beds and all wrapped up with a white picket fence. This enchanting property is the perfect country home, stylishly appointed, conveniently located, and move in ready with nothing to do except curl up with a good book by the fire.
The beautiful timber front verandah and inviting blue door make for a most impressive entrance, providing a glimpse of what's to come. As you enter you are immediately struck by the soaring 3.3 metre ceilings which are complemented by a wide central hallway and stunning Royal Oak parquetry floors throughout the home. Meticulously restored this home retains many beautiful period details including original double hung windows, crown moldings, architraves, and skirting boards, together with a majestic ceiling rose featured in the living room.
The master bedroom wing features a bay window and seat which includes extra storage, a generous walk-in robe with plenty of hanging and shelving options and ensuite with generous walk-in-shower, heated towel rails and marble vanity.
There are two further bedrooms – one with floor to ceiling cabinetry to accommodate even the largest fashion collection and the other with a study nook to create a flexible multi-purpose space if required. The central bathroom features a deep standalone porcelain soaking tub, heated towel rails, frameless glass shower and impressive marble dual vanity. Adjoining is a neatly tucked away Euro laundry with plenty of storage.
The northern sun-drenched rear of the home includes a spacious open plan kitchen, with integrated dishwasher and fridge / freezer, Miele induction cooktop and porcelain bench tops adjacent to a spacious dining area featuring a 6-seater round table. New double-glazed windows allow the light to stream in and provide views of the courtyard alfresco entertaining area, surrounded by beautiful trees and garden beds.
The wow factor is dialed up a notch in the formal living room featuring a further east facing bay window complete with cushion seating and storage, gas log fire, custom cabinetry and shelving and exquisite light fittings.
It's the little details that mark this homes' specialness – thoughtful inclusions in the custom cabinetry such as a built-in filing cabinet, the attention to detail in the painting, and consideration to its orientation. You'll be kept comfortable all year round with ducted heating and cooling.
Outside you will find a charming low maintenance cool climate, cottage gardens which will flourish in time and surround the home with a cheerful seasonal colour palette. The grand Blackwood provides architectural elegance, and a spot to sit and enjoy a quiet cup of tea or heartfelt chat with friends or family. Tuscan stone paths and off-street parking for two cars complete this neat package.
This proud, restored Edwardian will make the perfect country home for those seeking a lifestyle change, downsize or investment opportunity.
