Overview

A Vision of Period Class & Matthews Hill Lifestyle Credentials.

A home constructed in an era of residential artistry, this impeccable 1940s Tudor-style clinker brick residence has been beautifully rejuvenated with contemporary class, while retaining an abundance of its original character. Set on a substantial 571m² allotment with scope to further grow, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home in one of the most desirable and tightly held pockets of Matthews Hill. The blue-ribbon locale is renowned for its picturesque streetscapes and collection of stunning period homes, with 3 Cornwall occupying an enviable position neighbouring Matthews Hill Reserve and Playground. A practical and versatile floorplan offers two spacious bedrooms, with the flexibility to easily adapt the existing layout to create a third bedroom, study or children's retreat. Formal living and dining spaces provide a choice of entertaining zones, complemented by a beautifully renovated bathroom and separate laundry. The spacious kitchen is filled with natural light and appointed with stone benchtops, a wraparound breakfast bar and quality gas appliances. A particularly clever feature is the concealed pull-down ladder providing access to an excellent additional storage area. Outside, the mature landscaped gardens create a private and peaceful setting, with the undercover alfresco providing an inviting space to relax and entertain throughout the year. Modern comforts include ducted heating and split-system heating and cooling, while the home's original architectural details provide a beautiful connection to its 1940s origins. Soaring 12-foot ceilings, leadlight windows, decorative cornices, an original fireplace, stained-glass doors and solid timber architraves combine to showcase the craftsmanship and enduring beauty of a bygone era. Importantly, there is no heritage overlay on the title, providing valuable flexibility and further enhancing the property's future potential. Immaculate private front gardens create an immediate sense of arrival, reinforcing the home's impressive street presence and highly desirable address. With Our Lady's Primary School, Matthews Hill Reserve, Sunshine Transport Hub and Railway Station, and the Hampshire Road retail precinct all within easy walking distance, the lifestyle appeal is undeniable. A rare combination of period elegance, contemporary comfort, generous land and outstanding future potential, 3 Cornwall is an exceptional opportunity to secure a character-filled home in one of Sunshine's most tightly held and sought-after pockets.
