A Lovely Family Home within a Garden of Eden to Savour or Divide

Within this tranquil setting is a large home with a mature garden, a lovely pool on a piece of land of approximately 4083 sqm. You may wish to enjoy this in its entirety or (subject to council consent), subdivide the rear portion of this block and capitalise on this opportunity now or into the future.
The home originally built around 1918 has been significantly extended and modified on 3 sides to create a home of sizable proportions with 8 main rooms including an informal living area conservatory overlooking the ever changing picturesque garden, distant tree lined hills and nightly stunning sunsets, all to enjoy and relax within your own ‘Garden of Eden’.

The design of this character home caters for both open living and times when the original portion of the home provide for a more intimate atmosphere, with its conventional yet extensive living, dining and separate lounge areas.
Bedroom 1 with its west facing bay window and separate walk in robe / dressing room provides a unique private space with one of the two bathrooms conveniently just across the hallway.
Bedrooms 2 and 3 are positioned on the east side of the home and have built-in robes and in particular bedroom 3 enjoys access to the rear garden through French doors to an elevated timber deck.
The kitchen with granite benchtops is located within the open plan space yet ideally close to the formal dining. Plenty of cupboard and bench space with an island cupboard, walk in pantry and dishwasher. A 2nd fridge space is within the pantry.
The garaging and the extensive array of outbuildings provides storage and space for a multitude of uses. The main garage with its red cedar doors and façade was originally a place of business of a local identity by the name of WA Gibb & Son – Carpenters & Builders from close to a century ago. There are reminders within the garage which will stay with the property.
Meandering brick paths take you through this extensive garden of both native and exotic trees, shrubs and ground covers. A year round supply of flowers and foliage can be enjoyed on the plants or adorn the internals of the home with colour and aroma. Birds and native animals are in absolute abundance and provide much entertainment and pleasure whether whilst you are within the garden or viewing them from inside. An Idyllic environment for inspiration and contemplation.
The tiled concrete inground pool is fenced and has an adjacent paved area (ideal for dining) and also a grassed area to enjoy playing with the children at ball games. Inclusions are a solar blanket and pool utility items. Beneath a portion of the home is an abundance of space currently used for wine storage. An abundance of rain water tanks provide a plentiful supply of water for drinking and garden maintenance throughout summer.
This home provides an opportunity to a buyer looking for the pleasures this home has to offer combined with a sensational opportunity either now or in the future to capitalise on the likely subdividing capability of the rear portion of the land (subject to council consent).
