Built in 1917, this grand Arts & Crafts-style property combines timeless character, spacious living, and thoughtful modern enhancements. Situated on a freehold 607m² site in a peaceful cul-de-sac, seaward-side street. The classic white weatherboard exterior, terracotta tile roof, timber joinery, and stained-glass windows highlight the home’s architectural features. The home has been lovingly maintained and cherished by its current owners.

Step inside the formal entrance, featuring warm dark wood panelling, grand staircase, ornate pressed plaster ceilings, and a sparkling chandelier. With a generous floor area, the home offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms, three separate living areas, a study and a large double garage with internal access.

The kitchen and open-plan dining/informal living area feature a central stone island and beautiful timber benchtops. This space connects seamlessly to a covered outdoor veranda perfect for entertaining. A formal living room offers an abundance of natural light, a gas fireplace, and views over the garden. A second, relaxing living space features a bespoke chandelier, gas fireplace and leads to a separate study, which could easily serve as a fifth bedroom.

On the upper level, the master suite is a spacious sanctuary, offering sea views, a large walk-in robe, and a luxurious en-suite with a claw-foot bath, timber floors, and a double vanity. There are three further bedrooms and a shared bathroom.

Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a covered veranda featuring skylight, louvres, a drop-down screen, and heater for year-round comfort. This steps down to the manicured garden with lush hedging for privacy and connects to the in-ground concrete swimming pool.

In addition, the home has just been fitted with plush new carpets and features gas central heating, a CCTV system, a “Wi-Fi Smart” irrigation system to keep the gardens lush year-round, front and rear garden lights, as well as a huge storage area in the basement.
