Built when there were only twenty-two other homes in Emerald, it was the first two storey house to grace the township. Constructed when quality and workmanship was paramount, this attic-storey gabled lathe and textured stucco house is architecturally significant in the area and most importantly a wonderful family home. Naturally land was plenty, this 6884 m2 allotment commands a captivating view over rolling hills, Cardinia Reservoir and to Port Phillip Bay.
Featuring imported fittings from its Swedish settlement roots, the distinctive Wunderlich art metal ceilings and walls are visually dramatic, many of fittings were built by local craftsman and the current owner has added superb leadlight throughout the home. The ‘Great ‘Room’ was the dining/ballroom, local soirees would have been here, afternoon teas, a ball would have been the talk of the district.
