LIMBRAEnBUILT IN 1914, AND THEN LATER EXTENDED IN THE 1920'S, THIS SIGNIFICANT WEATHERBOARD HOME EMBODIES ALL THE GRACIOUSNESS OF ANOTHER ERA. WITH LINKS TO MANY PROMINENT LOCAL FAMILIES, LIMBRAE' HAS IN THE PAST FUNCTIONED AS A GUESTHOUSE AND MASON'S MEETING PLACE PRIOR TO THE COMPLETION OF THEIR PURPOSE BUILT QUARTERS NEARBY. NOW A VERY COMFORTABLE RESIDENCE, THE HOME RETAINS ALL THE PERIOD FEATURES YOU WOULD EXPECT INCLUDING TIMBER LINING BOARDS AND PANELLING, HIGH CEILINGS, FIREPLACES, TIMBER FLOORS AND WINDOWS AND STAINED AND PERIOD GLASS.
