“An Enchanting Once In A Lifetime Opportunity”

WORLINGWORTH

FOR YOUR PRIVATE INSPECTION PLEASE CONTACT ROCCO MONTANARO DIRECT

Worlingworth offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience timeless grandeur underscored by the beauty of the gardens and the rare and relaxing presence of the iconic Yarra River, making up one of the boundaries.

Named after the village of Worlingworth, Suffolk, home to the forbears of RN Commander Alan Barlee, who commissioned the construction of the current home in the 1920s, it is now offered for the first time since 1934.

Sited on a spectacular 4 acre (approx) landholding, the privacy, tranquillity and welcoming warmth deliver a genuinely magical lifestyle experience. Sunrises over the river are a gentle alarm clock, and garden vistas that bring a kaleidoscope of colour throughout the year almost trump the original integrity and exquisite period detail of the vast interior spaces.

Constructed to stand the test of time, featuring a slate roof, rose-pink hand-made bricks and stone quarried on the property, the floorplan introduces several gracious and well-proportioned entertainment areas, including a sitting room, formal dining, TV room and living room. They are all enhanced by exceptional period detail, and all enjoy a mesmerising outlook across the rolling lawn to the Yarra River.

They are partnered by three generously proportioned bedrooms (two of which open to the sunroom), all served by the family bathroom, while the warm and welcoming family-meals integrates a modern kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances.

Set in paved surrounds, the pool anchors a relaxing alfresco space, ready for summer enjoyment.

Town water plus exceptionally rare riparian rights allowing water pumping and unencumbered access to the Yarra River that makes up its rear boundary.

Modern conveniences include hydronic heating, underground electricity from the road to the house, an alarm, a new submersible pump and underground piping from the river and new plumbing.

Among the ancillary buildings is a mudbrick dairy. c1860 one of the oldest buildings in the area, it stands under an Oak tree grown from an acorn seed brought from Worlingworth, England! Extra outbuildings include an auto door garage with fitted shelving, a workbench and an adjoining studio, a second studio, storerooms, and a shed.

A lifestyle of memories, enjoyment and pleasure for generations, this is an unparalleled opportunity; by way of elegance, location, storied history, architecture and outstanding garden, new owners can continue the wonderful history of this unique property and make memories of their own!
