In all my years selling real estate, I’ve never seen a home that is as unique as this one.
Handcrafted to a degree that you simply won’t find in another home – 54 years of craftmanship and thought has gone into this property.
Set amongst magnificent gardens sits this extraordinary residence beckoning you into a bygone era of beauty.
Just waiting to be discovered, the romance of yesteryear is apparent in the features throughout, such as corbels, arches, tessellated tiles, sash windows, cast iron, leadlight, ornate and high ceilings, guttered cornice, timber and bluestone.
The residence has a showpiece in the centre a round bluestone and glass conservatory which is a wonderful place to entertain or just to relax in the space and take in the lovely garden vistas.
Perfect for a lazy day and a great book.
Two ‘wings’ fan off this central area, one the main suite featuring WIR, ensuite and private deck and the guest suite with ensuite and BIR’s. Follow the cast iron spiral staircase to the rooms below, a rumpus room through to the circular cellar/workshop and a garage.
The remaining section of the residence starts with the gorgeous shady front veranda, entering the foyer then into the formal lounge with open fireplace, an office with jarrah cabinetry, a formal dining room that is spacious for any grand occasion adjoining the kitchen/diner with granite benches, stainless steel 900mm upright stove and a servery. The rooms continue onto the 3rd bedroom also with BIR, a spacious laundry and separate bathroom.
This home has lots of hidden delights, nooks and crannies both inside and out, the children can look forward to the best game of hide and seek ever played.
You can look forward to a wonderful lifestyle in a stunning setting.
Set on almost 1.5 acres, the gardens are a joy to behold, old growth trees dripping with orchids, an amazing flat grassy area, grotto, ponds, stone and brick pathways and lawns – simply one of the most amazing collection of plants you will ever find – this could easily be described as the Emerald Botanic Gardens. There is also a second garage, garden shed, store and studio/workshop, perfect for the home hobbyist or artistic pursuits.
And to top it all off, just a short walk into Emerald township with its shops, cafes and transport – and Puffing Billy!
This home is simply amazing – you just have to see it to understand the workmanship – hope the see you there.
