"LORN HOUSE" Circa 1830

A rare and exciting opportunity to appreciate and enjoy contemporary living blended with gracious historical surroundings in the sought after and highly regarded garden suburb of Lorn…. It just doesn't get any better. With just 5 owners in its nearly 200 year history this could now be your time. Be captivated by this fine example of Georgian Architecture, built by craftsmen convicts in a quiet, secluded 3983sqm (almost 1 acre) adjacent to riverside farmland yet a stone's throw from the boutique village of Lorn with quality shops, café and restaurants, an easy walk to Maitland CBD and 30 minutes from Newcastle.
Set in a whisper quiet location with manicured and expansive park-like gardens and many established trees including a mini-orchard - Southern Highlands style. Expansive paved verandas are flanked by mature grapevines overlooking established garden beds with many exotic trees and shrubs. The verandah with solid stone columns befit the beautiful, graceful homestead which stands so proudly on this commanding site chosen all so long ago, now tastefully melded with modern comforts of reverse cycle ducted air conditioning and inviting inground pool. A separate double garage with loft suitable for easy conversion to expand on accommodation, perpetual bore water, fully irrigated, alternate private access well suited to an entrepreneurial pursuit with rear lane/driveway.
The grand interior displays extensive use of magnificent original cedar joinery and the exquisite workmanship confirms the grandeur afforded during the early construction. The original cellar is still easily accessible and the numerous open fireplaces provide a cosy and inviting ambience, high ceilings, etched glass, servants quarters (now a library room) and the mystique of this grand lady beyond the garden wall establishes this residence as one of the most iconic historic homes in the region.
For those who appreciate the beauty of the Georgian era and seeking a gracious, private home steeped in history "Lorn House" rewards with visual beauty and a relaxed elegance, charm & grace.
