Sale by SET DATE 24/3/2014 (unless sold prior)Steeped in history, this imposing residence of opulence is one of the grandest properties on the Geelong property market today. Barry Plant is proud to present this “Signature” property which boasts colossal charm as it magically reminds you of an enchanting era long gone. Built in 1915 by local architects, the immaculately presented Edwardian period residence - often described as a classic “Newtown Villa” - combines elements of the Queen Anne, Art Nouveau and Picturesque styles of the early twentieth century. The five-bedroom, four-bathroom home sits on an enormous 1505sqm parcel of land that is rare to find in the heart of Newtown. The clever craftsmanship of yesteryear and quality appointments can be admired at every turn with striking features boldly and carefully maintained over the years, with contemporary additions thoughtfully implemented while upholding its tradition. The splendour of the bright welcoming home is created by its blend of beautiful old world decor, high ceilings, warm tones, cornices, architraves, chandeliers and gorgeous bay windows. The main informal and formal living areas are positioned on the first floor to provide flexibility and privacy with two separate living rooms, dining room, study, conservatory and a dazzling kitchen with polished floorboards that is not only stunning to look at but completely practical as well. Three large bedrooms are also located on the ground level with a solid timber staircase leading to the main bedroom with walk-in robe, ensuite and private retreat overlooking the landscaped surrounds. Immerse yourself in Geelong's heritage today and enjoy the luxury and quality that this unique period home has to offer.Photo ID Required
