There's a serene beauty to every facet of this truly remarkable property sited on an elevated 3,263 sqm land parcel located on the peaceful fringe of historic Braidwood within easy commuting distance of both Canberra and the beaches of Batemans Bay. "Yately House", originally named "Goonarra" was built in 1881 by local haberdasher George Tweedy sits on its own little hill with two street frontages on the edge of town backing agistment paddocks. Presented in largely original condition and having benefitted from significant maintenance work over the last few decades preserving much of its period charm, this stately colonial style residence is characterised by immense room proportions, towering 12 foot ceilings with ornate cornicing, enchanting fireplaces and extensive natural timber finishings. The residence is comprised of 16 rooms in total; three massive living rooms, six bedrooms including the original housekeepers quarters, two bathrooms, and a galley-style kitchen with adjoining separate dining room along with a large rustic laundry room. In addition there is an astounding grand main entrance hallway dividing the gracious living spaces. The main house is entirely surrounded by a 2.6m wide verandah with bull-nosed awnings. There is a double carport and a 4.9 x 5.5 m workshop that has a single carport attached. The original brick outhouse now serves as garden equipment storage. Elevated on a corner block of 3263m2 , the garden offers the opportunity to develop further to complement the majestic 140 year old cedar trees that stand proudly either side of the magnificent two-tier marble staircases. A multitude of other mature plantings and established hedges mean you do not have to wait years for privacy in your home or garden. "Yately House" in its present form makes a spectacular residence yet still has virtually limitless potential to be transformed as a superb guest house, conference/wedding venue, restaurant or gallery with the appropriate approvals.
