Behind the 1800mm fence and electric gate, step back in time to yesteryear with pretty pink and white cottage gardens contrasting beautifully against the vivid white of the home's weatherboards. The north facing front verandah stretches the entire width with plenty of room for an outdoor lounge, hammock, gym and potted plants. This is definitely the place to relax with a cuppa or glass of wine while you watch the sunset, summer storms or the kids playing.

Upon entering the front door, the first thing you'll notice are the soaring timber tongue and groove ceilings and walls. They simply don't make them like this anymore. To the right is the king size Master Bedroom featuring a newly installed reverse cycle split system air conditioner and fan to ensure year round comfort, walk-in-robe and modern ensuite with 1000x1000 shower, heated towel rails and stone top vanity. Across the hallway is Bedroom 2, also a king size room with robes and fan.

No doubt, the heart of the home is the open plan living rooms. Again those high ceilings give a great feeling of space and is filled with light from the banks of original casement windows, beautiful timber and glass doors and 3 skylights. Each of the areas are spacious enough to be flexible in their use; the currently layout of kitchen, dining, family and living room are very comfortable and also feature air conditioning and fans for all seasons. The kitchen is large with plenty of cupboards, drawers, overheads and pantry providing ample storage and metres of stone benchtops for easy preparation of meals. Stainless steel Ariston dishwasher, 900mm electric oven and 900mm gas cooktop are perfect for any serious cook while filtered tank water is plumbed to the fridge space and also the pot filler over the stove top.

The original bathroom retains its old style claw foot bath and vanity but has been cleverly and beautifully pulled into the 21st century with new shower, toilet, plenty of storage options, heated towel rails and good lighting. The new laundry with drying rack, benchtop for folding and better storage is now upstairs with easy access from the kitchen. The third and fourth bedroom both have external doors for individual access, robes and enough room for queen beds or bunks, perfect for kids or teenagers.

Step down 3 stairs to the rear pergola into a cool and inviting entertaining area with its own brick barbeque ready for the gas bottle and Weber. The original laundry with a 3rd bathroom servicing the entertaining area, could easily become a 3rd bathroom, bar or storage room. The 1012m2 yard, a full quarter acre in old school terms, has perfumed border plantings which will provide complete privacy. There's a 6x6 metre shed for Dad's workshop, parking for the boat or trailer, a 4x3 metre shed for the mower and tools, a chicken coop for the family, veggie and fruit garden for homegrown delights, enough room for the kids to kick a ball in the backyard and space for big dogs to run safely, and don't forget the firepit.

Add a tandem secure carport and parking for 2 vehicles on the driveway behind electric gates and this property offers a fantastic lifestyle for professionals, couples, retirees or families. And it's so close to the CBD, shopping centres, 3 primary, secondary and private schools, 2 vets and entertainment, that you may even sell the car. This grand old lady is truly a rare beauty and with the extensive work in restoration, she will still be standing in another 121 years to come.

Serious buyers are invited to inspect and put forward their offers, but don't delay because this one definitely will not be available for long.
