A place to put down your family roots
If you have dreamt of owning a character home with a huge backyard, then your dream is about to be realised. This wonderfully loved family home has been in the same family for around 30 years, and it's now time for another family to take ownership and create lasting memories. Built in 1912, this 140 m2 (approx) home consists of three generously sized bedrooms, all with storage, high ceilings and lots of natural light. The living room has enough space for the entire family and retains the charm of this home with original features scattered throughout. There is a ground-level sash window opening onto the side verandah, making it a lovely spot for an afternoon cup of tea, and the large windows look out over the expansive backyard. The family bathroom is ready for a new lease of life and with its workable proportions, some magic could be created here. The dining room is an ideal size for family gatherings, while the adjoining kitchen is a pleasure to use with its ample and well-thought-out storage, stone benchtops and good workable space. Stepping outside, we find plenty of room for vehicles, a single garage, the laundry and multiple garden sheds. The back lawn offers the perfect amount of space for games of cricket or a greenhouse if you are an avid gardener. Children and pets can also roam and play freely as this 1,535 m2 (approx) section is fully fenced. The established raised gardens at the back and side of the section offer peace and tranquillity, making this a truly wonderful spot. There is a lot of potential in this property, so call us for a private viewing or visit me at an open home ahead of the Auction on 19 February 2026.
