Every element reflects the design elegance of the late 19th century, offering a sense of permanence and timeless appeal. Inside, the home unfolds with warmth and charm. A formal lounge with a wood burner creates a cosy retreat, while at the heart of the home, the kitchen and dining spaces form a natural gathering place, where daily rituals unfold with ease and connection, true to the home's enduring sense of warmth and togetherness. Original features take centre stage throughout, from ornate roof finials and intricate cornices to ceiling roses set against soaring ceilings. Native timbers, stained glass, and classic bay windows add layers of texture and personality, giving the home a depth that only time can create. Four bedrooms are complemented by a spacious bathroom, complete with a clawfoot bath and brass fittings. The veranda offers the perfect spot to unwind, looking out across the rural landscape and established grounds that frame the home so beautifully. A stable-style garage and additional outbuildings complete the setting, adding flexibility for storage, hobbies, or simply enhancing the charm of the property. More than just a home, this is a place with a story, offering a peaceful lifestyle and a sense of history that's increasingly hard to find. Get in touch with me to arrange your viewing.
