Behind a picturesque white picket fence sits this grand colonial home on a sprawling 1,221m2 allotment. The circa 1917 six-bedroom residence has great ambiance and will accommodate even the largest of families with ease.

Entering through the batwing doors and onto the immense wrap around veranda, a beautiful leadlight door greets you home. From the moment you step inside, you will appreciate all the period features unique to homes of this era. Soaring 3.2m ceilings run through the hallway and into the open plan living and dining area. Floor to ceiling VJ panels, picture rails, intricate archways and ceiling roses all add their touches of charm; while sets of stained-glass coat-hanger french doors opening out to the encircling veranda’s offer fantastic cross breezes.

The modern kitchen which adjoins an informal meals area showcases granite benchtops and classic white 2 pac cabinetry. With stainless-steel Smeg appliances including a 5-burner gas stove top and 900mm oven, new Ariston dishwasher, backlit glass display cabinets and an abundance of storage space, it offers beautiful simplicity. But the centerpiece of the kitchen is the lengthy window servery, opening out to the rear entertaining deck and offering south-west views of Flinders Peak, Mt Walker and beyond. The deck has been wonderfully completed with a gabled roofline and overlooks landscaped gardens and in-ground salt water pool below.

Bedrooms two, three and four join the master on the first floor. The master is positioned at the front of the home and takes advantage of two sets of French doors, leading out to the front and side enclosed veranda. Re-modelling plans are available to turn the second bedroom into luxurious ensuite and walk-in robe. Bedrooms three and four are located at the rear of the home in a seamless extension added to the property around 1933. The main bathroom features federation tessellated tiles, VJ paneling, timber washstand, free-standing shower, wall sconces and a beautiful cast-iron clawfoot bath which has recently been re-enameled. A separate powder room with additional wash basin also incorporates the federation tessellated tiles and sits next to a linen cupboard with an invaluable laundry chute down to the ground floor laundry.

Raised in 1994, the ground level has been meticulously created to keep in line with the upstairs elements. With 2.8m ceilings, the space offers even more living options with a rumpus area adjoining a custom built Silky-Oak bar and separate wine cellar with room for 440 bottles. French doors open out to a covered patio area, pool and gardens. The further two bedrooms are serviced by a neat and tidy bathroom with free-standing shower and timber washstand and basin.

An oversized two car remote lock up garage sits alongside a storage room, workroom or area which could easily be converted into a hobby room. A concreted area in the yard offers additional space for a caravan, boat or trailer.

Situated on 3 allotments, the property not only offers sprawling space for the family, but an option to easily cut off one of the lots without moving the house. (S.T.C.A)
