Capable of fulfilling the criteria of most peoples forever home, this architecturally designed home has a quality of finish that demonstrates true craftsmanship from the initial lacework beautifully dressing the front verandah right down to the last ornate ceiling rose.
Built originally for his family by renowned master builder Roger Singleton, the home has been long held by the current owners since 1993. The owners have preserved the homes beautiful character and maintained the property to a high standard which shows in the presentation of this spectacular property.
Upon entry you immediately feel a sense of home. That warm inviting feeling often hard to replicate in modern builds. You are greeted by the over sized Master bedroom with a bay window overlooking the front gardens, a large walk in robe and an updated En Suite bathroom.
The second and third bedrooms down the hall are also both spacious, feature built in robes and are supplied with an abundance of natural northern light from the colonial style, double hung windows.
The main living room is large and welcoming with a 'Convict' brick fireplace with a Jetmaster insert at the centre of the living area providing the perfect place to congregate as a family of an evening. Double French doors open to the front verandah to allow the North Easterly breeze to flow directly into the home during the summer months.
The formal dining area is spacious and has a direct connection to the kitchen.
The kitchen has sealed cork flooring, which is durable, comfortable, and naturally warmer and quieter underfoot. A large tiled bench top provides plenty of room for meal prep and doubles as a breakfast buffet. Magnificent Tasmanian Oak timber cabinetry ties in perfectly to the exposed timber beams and panelling.
The kitchen has fantastic transition to the outdoor entertainment area which is a key feature of the home and the kitchen windows overlook the yard, handy for keeping an eye on the younger members of the family. The outdoor space enjoys the benefit of northern sun. The main bathroom is original yet very functional. Update if desired though not required.
The outdoor entertainment area is covered and has a beautiful outlook across the very private rear yard which consists of well-manicured garden beds full of established plants and a second lawn area with plenty of room to install a pool if you wished.
The standalone studio is nestled in the garden at the rear corner of the property and is a fully self-contained space. It has private access from a side path and its own parking spot. A great option for those with regular visits from family & friends or a handy form of letting income if desired. This could also be the perfect space for a home office.
A large double garage with a second roller door at rear provides access to the rear yard.
