Thereâs a wonderful world of surprises behind the private hedging and picket fencing as you approach âRosevilleâ. As pretty as a picture in classic heritage white and sage, with traditional wrap around, bull nose verandahs and a pitched roof, the exterior sets the tone for the serene interior beyond the front door.
Being a weatherboard construction, she feels lighter on the block, and looks really smart with oodles of street appeal. Functionality is paramount with the dwelling to the side of the block of land allowing to a single garage and studio but also vehicle access to the yard and plenty of off-street parking.
Coming inside, the entrance boasts original heritage features making an instant impact and setting the scene for the attention to detail that has gone into the whole home. A typical Victorian floor plan, the design offers a central corridor with bedrooms branching either side before expanding into the formal loungeroom, here a formal dining.
The essence of a soul-filling space, this room allows you to embrace the joy of creating a winter wonderland for the people you love; food with heart and time spent together by the original wood burning fire.
The bedrooms with large timber framed windows, original 6-inch floorboards and dado lined walls feel especially roomy and offer the romance of a bygone era.
In the 2014 built extension, old neatly dovetails with new thanks to a sympathetic addition to the original home. Light fittings, dado boards and leadlight windows bridge the divide between original and new beautifully.
A flowing and inviting living room has been crafted to create corners to unwind, the design combines a single open space divided into zones.
Itâs open to the kitchen so the cook can be working and chatting at the same time â its and easy space.
While the brief for the extension was an overall open plan feel, cosy spaces were important too. A combustion fire turns up the cosiness here and creates an idyllic spot to curl up with a book or watch television.
Working from home has become the norm for many in todayâs climate and Roseville is as accommodating to working remotely as if she was built for it with a custom-made studio or Zoom-Room off the garage. With a separate entrance and not attached to the home, the area has been insulated for sound and is currently set up as a music studio but the acoustics could as easily be adapted to a soundproof office space, family day-care, home salon or meeting rooms.
A family breathes life into a heritage home, Roseville is an elegant family abode that honours the past while embracing the present.
