To the front, a peaceful lounge opens out to the pillared front verandah while a second living area and timber kitchen with meals area look at to the rear garden.
Including three large bedrooms (BIRs) sharing a traditional bathroom with clawfoot bath, this grand home offers the comfort of hydronic heating inside, while out amongst the established greenery are multiple out-houses offering workshop space, a studio and laundry/WC plus ample storage, pizza oven and a lock-up garage.
With a 5.8kw solar system, original accents that include beautiful leadlight window, this is an incredibly rare chance to procure a substantial allotment approximately 500m from the foreshore.
