"Waverleigh" is the epitome of indulgent contemporary accommodation with exceptional character and ultimate flexibility. It showcases an inspired combination of high-end elegance and period features, and has been fully renovated with the highlight being the addition of an upper level.
An exquisite modern interpretation of classic Victorian architecture, this home pays homage to its past while honoring the modern day needs of a busy household. Throughout the building you will note a myriad of heritage features including the original polished timber floors, picture rails, timber lined ceilings, wall sconces, ceiling roses, coffered ceilings, and open fireplaces. It has been impeccably kept, and with its combination of space and quality it is sure to impress.
Comprising three living rooms, the first you will encounter is a stunning sitting room with French doors leading to a small deck, topped off with a stunning antique French light fitting. As you step through to the rear addition you'll enter the open plan kitchen/family meals which has timber flooring so seamlessly matched to the original section of the home you'll be astonished. High quality appliances have been installed in the kitchen, including a 900mm Smeg freestanding oven, integrated Miele dishwasher and one of the largest farmhouse sinks you're likely to see.
Providing a luxurious escape from the rest of the home the second floor incorporates a generous living room, spacious hidden study, a merbau deck balcony adorned with iron lace balustrading stretching the width of the home, a master bedroom with walk-in robe, and a gorgeous ensuite with double vanity and 1200mm shower. The remaining three bedrooms are all on the ground floor and are of excellent size with window views of the verdant gardens. Further attributes include a claw foot bathtub with a statement oval shower rail, an incredible amount of storage, front Crimsafe security door, a security system, ducted heating and cooling, ceiling fans, a single garage, and carport.
The 538sqm allotment has been thoughtfully landscaped, with particular attention paid to privacy. The boundaries are planted with a pleasing blend of Pittosporum and West Australian Peppermint trees and, considering its urban location, the property is very well shielded from the neighbours. A timber verandah spans the rear of the home, with a central flight of steps mimicking the symmetry so synonymous with Victorian abodes. Outdoor is a steel garden shed with power, and a roller door from the single garage allows access for a trailer.
Just off Russell Street and walking distance to town, this wonderful property is very quietly located opposite St Joseph's Church, with Quarry Hill Primary School and St Joseph's School a short walk away. This property offers an idyllic inner-urban family lifestyle with its expanded double storey design, long list of features and close proximity to everything that counts
