Location and lifestyle in a world of its own
Seldom does an irresistible opportunity arise to secure a wonderfully preserved double storey Edwardian family home on a magnificent 1,226sqm (13,200sqft) approx north/south allotment in a prized location within walking distance of Bay Road Village. Presenting as it was built in 1903 with an amazingly solid wraparound verandah, it offers formal and informal living and 4 bedrooms with a host of period features in established gardens of enormous proportion. This imposing residence offers a grand entrance with timber fretwork; 4 bedrooms, 2 downstairs and 2 upstairs; an expansive formal lounge with open fireplace; formal dining room and home office joined by French doors; a family/meals room off the kitchen which overlooks a park-like north facing rear garden; central downstairs bathroom; laundry with 2nd shower. Included amongst period features are ornate 12 ft ceilings and roses, detailed architraves, dado walls and picture rails. The huge rear garden which is home to numerous fruit trees, vegetable garden beds, towering natives, lock up garage, carport and outbuildings can also be accessed off Gipsy Way. Perfectly positioned, the home is close to shopping, Sandringham Station, Hampton and Sandringham beaches and many fine schools. A property of this magnitude is enormously appealing.
