Waldheim is a repository of local history. Built as a guest house opposite the original Olinda Hotel, she would have impressed and entertained her numerous guests with the charming features you would expect in a home of the era. 12-foot ceilings, Baltic floorboards and Open-Fire Places are standout points of the internal design. The last 20 years or thereabouts has seen the property utilized as a rooming house, where along with the owner, the home has provided a safe haven for up to 12 guests at a time. Comprising a formal entry, original family living with open fireplace, a large family conservatory room featuring unique hexagon windows, a massive rumpus room and 7 bedrooms that connect to the central hallway, the home is wrapped in a verandah on three sides. Downstairs, a fully contained apartment and numerous storage rooms all reinforce the impression of the tremendous space and opportunity this property presents to a buyer with vision . Set upon 5 acres of Nth facing land with a Pony Paddock and creek frontage, the property is located at the end of a quiet cul de sac that provides seclusion and privacy. The gardens, planted 120 years ago, showcase a range of exotic species, while extensive landscaping around the home includes beautiful Gazebo areas and water elements. Additional features include solar power and multiple access points with generous car parking and cover.
