Showcasing gorgeous street appeal, this Victorian-era double fronted weatherboard perfectly blurs the lines between restoration and period revival.
It transports you back to the gloriously ornate Victorian era with its decorative façade and carefully curated gardens.
But, step inside to be wowed even more by its classic charm and elegance. Polished timber floors, brass-knobbed paneled doors, timber dado, deep-set cornice, rosettes and cast iron fireplaces are just a few of the many features.
The colour scheme includes decorative wallpaper borders and feature walls. Two bedrooms are set at the front of the house with a central hall leading to a formal dining room and cosy living room opposite.
The home then opens across the house with a spacious dining/kitchen zone with timber ceiling, wood cupboards, terracotta tiled floor and enameled wood stove set into the brick chimney. It also features a pantry, plenty of bench space, four-burner gas cooktop and wall oven
Every window has a leafy aspect as the garden wraps around all sides. Chequered tiles designate the second half of the house which contains a family bathroom with double shower and vanity and bath. A separate powder room and enormous laundry, with another shower, are adjacent. Opposite is the large master bedroom with six-door BIRs.
Be spoiled for zones to relax with a second air-conditioned and carpeted living room. And, when the afternoon sun shines, retreat to a welcoming sunroom across the rear which overlooks a lush formal garden of trees and shrubs, expanses of decorative brick paving and paths that take you to secret nooks. A second powder room adjoins the sunroom.
Set in one of Geelong’s few boulevard-style streets with a broad central avenue of trees, it also has a side entry from Lt Richmond Street and a lane across the rear. A lock-up garage and workshop/storeroom are set in one corner of the yard.
The home is close to East Geelong shopping village, Barwon River trails, parks, Little Creatures, nearby cafes, schools, the CBD and Waterfront.
