Pristine, Period Charm & Space
Situated on a generous 8589.3sqm (approx.) parcel, this double brick Federation home offers the perfect combination of space and charm. Circa 1910, this immaculate home has all the trimmings of its time spacious verandahs, magnificent entrance hall, some original stained glass windows and doors, 12 foot ceilings and more.
3 generous double bedrooms branch from the magnificent entrance hall (which still has an original telephone on the wall!) All 3 bedrooms are spacious with neutral carpet and paint in good condition. Bedroom 1 has a ceiling fan and opens to the sunroom, currently doubling as a sewing room. Bedroom 2 has a ceiling fan, gorgeous carved period mantle and boarded fireplace ready to be restored. Bedroom 3 is the master, featuring ceiling fan, 3 built in wardrobes and external access to the verandah through the stained glass doorway. A fourth smaller bedroom/office is located off the kitchen/dining area with near new carpet.
The large, split system reverse cycle airconditioner for the home is supplemented by an inbuilt Coonara fireplace and older air conditioner in the lovely main living area. The beautifully ornate mantle piece, high ceilings and original stained glass door to the verandah make this a relaxing space. Across the hallway, the kitchen is in excellent condition, with Tasmanian Oak cupboards, moveable island bench, electric stove/oven, dishwasher, large pantry, lino flooring AND inbuilt dining nook complete with table and seating.
The bathroom and laundry are towards the back of the home. The large tiled family bathroom includes corner spa bath, shower recess and vanity. Conveniently located off the bathroom is the separate toilet. The back area has plenty of linen and storage space, and more cupboards are located in the tiled laundry. The laundry includes single tub and wall mounted clothes dryer.
Perfect for entertaining in any season, the large, North-facing entertaining area will please everyone. Tiled, undercover and screened, this area is conveniently located close enough to the kitchen and bathroom whilst still offering rural views over the back yard. A perfect combination to enable you to keep your eye on kids and pets whilst entertaining.
The 2 acre parcel includes road frontage and driveway from Pitt Street giving access into the triple (3 car) garage with roller doors. There is also access to the back of the property from Harrison Street. The back of the garage includes a workshop area and space to house everything that would normally be in your garden shed. Neat and tidy gardens and established trees and hedges brighten up the grounds of the home which includes a designated vegetable garden, outdoor eating area and a large selection of fruiting trees and vines. In an effort to keep all original fittings with the property, the owners have kept the old fuel stove and now use it as an external BBQ. The original well, with pump, provides water for the gardens and there is a grey water recycling scheme in operation. There are multiple options with this block, which is divided into 6 titles. 2, possibly 3 of these blocks (subject to council approval) are able to be sold individually and built on.
The owners are ready to retire and start their life on the coast. All private inspections are welcomed. Vendors are willing to negotiate prior to auction.
