Mesmerising with its classic Tudor charm and captivating gardens, this heartwarming 4 bedroom + study 2 bathroom c1938 classic is sympathetically renovated to bring out its inner beauty. Gorgeous with its diamond leadlights, high ceilings, deep sills and beautiful timber detail, this engaging treasure originally built by C. Weymouth, enjoys an arched portico, a huge void in the entry foyer, spellbinding lounge (gas fireplace) with Art Deco leadlight doors to the stately dining room (open fire and original bookcases). The 3 downstairs bedrooms are super spacious with one enjoying a walk in robe and understair storage access, another with its built in robe, day bed style box bay window and personal living room/study opening onto the garden; and the 3rd bedroom all serviced by a tasteful spa bathroom with marble vanity and separate toilet. The open plan entertaining area captures beautiful northern and morning sun and picture perfect garden views, featuring a granite kitchen (corner pantry) and a large laundry. Upstairs is a private parents’ escape sitting in the trees with an attic style bedroom featuring dormer windows, long walk in robe, porcelain tiled ensuite and a fabulous hidden room that’s perfect as a study, extra wardrobe space, meditation room or yoga studio. Full of intrigue, the gorgeous rear garden has a fernery, grapevine draped pergola, crazy slate alfresco patios, a fish pond and beautiful lawn for the kids to play, plus there is a large workshop with sink to potter or refine your craft. Whisper quiet and supremely private on 791sqm approx., this solid brick beauty is appointed with a security door, ducted heating, air conditioning, LED downlighting and a lock up garage.
