54 Belmore Road

Lorn NSW 2320

Infused with strength, stability and sophistication, this solid structure has intricate features consistent with the skills of the best craftsmen of that era. From the blond brickwork exterior, to the internal ornate plasterwork, marble fireplaces and the cedar joinery, all are examples of excellence. Period wallpaper, painted surfaces and antique furniture complement these defining features that have been preserved for over a century.
One of Yemangs outstanding traits is the abundance of full size windows allowing North Eastern light to fill the house in the mornings offering a grand vision of the gardens during the day. Two toned English bond brick work is shaded by wide verandahs wrapping around three sides to protect from direct sun for a pleasant internal temperature. The verandahs are finished with an elaborate cast iron frieze and Corinthian columns, elegantly framing the home.
A traditional High Victorian front door with vibrant tinted side windows and transom illuminate the wide internal hall. A solid, plaster archway once draped with velvet curtains is another hallmark of the construction era. The 12 inch varnished cedar skirting boards indicate formal rooms where visitors are traditionally entertained.
The kitchen connects to the grand dining room via a dry store, or Bulter s pantry where built-in shelves remain. The kitchen is upgraded with simple timber cabinetry that is functional and modern. The original brick cooking hearth on rear wall contrasts the bright white finish and is a hint of the surrounding history. Adjacent to the kitchen, a recently enclosed area features a well-worn back step and space for casual meals. Large timber framed sliding doors allow light to fill this casual area, creating an ideal place to relax in private.
The yard is large and easy to maintain. Lawns dotted with mature trees and established gardens wrap around the home. There is plenty of room for children to play and pets to roam, just like they have for over a century.
Positioned in the centre of Lorn, Yemangs is only minutes walk to the local shopping village and Maitland CBD is just on the other side of the Belmore Bridge.
This is the first time Yemangs has been for sale outside the Norrie family. This is a rare opportunity to give this grand old dame a new lease of life. In return, she will provide a strong sanctuary for you and your family within her well-loved, solid walls.
