There's something about this home which says 'period warmth and charm'. You'll love this delightful 30's bungalow with an Art Deco-style, complete with spectacular panoramic views of the Border Ranges. The freshly painted interior and exterior 3 x bedroom, 2 x bathroom dwelling (one an outdoor 'Bali-style' shower room) offers an effortless transition to all living spaces with wide 'deco' openings to all rooms. The lounge room, which is warmed by an ambient combustion fireplace in winter and new reverse cycle air-conditioning for summer, flows through to the dining room on one side and to the kitchen with updated appliances on the other. There are polished hardwood timber floors & ceiling fans throughout, and the neutral palette in most rooms is perfect for featuring your own artworks or artefacts. This home has a rich local history having been home to several artists, musicians, and noteworthy craftspeople, and the home and gardens reflect the creative and eclectic nature of those residents. The vintage features in this home are outstanding, with a few 'sympathetic' upgrades for modern comfortable living including a new dishwasher.
Awe inspiring views to the North can be enjoyed from the wide verandahs of either the home or the large studio, from the many French leadlight windows (an increasingly rare deco feature) or from many vantage points throughout the substantial 1.25 acres.
Almost level, the entire acreage is a maze of mature tropical gardens traversed by mown pathways and a gravel ring-road. Very private, this is a generous landscaped space to communicate with nature. Outbuildings include a 2-bay concrete & metal carport, garden shed, and a large detached fully lined studio – nestled beautifully into the tropical gardens and perfect for the new buyer looking for a second living space.
