Proudly introducing "Gables", a landmark district property built in the 1960s by local builder Basil Macdonald.
Step back in time with this largely original residence, set across two levels and positioned on an expansive landholding of almost 10,000m² (approximately 2.5 acres).
The home boasts a striking façade reminiscent of a charming gingerbread house, complemented by a magnificent mature magnolia tree in the front garden. Constructed with brick to the front and weatherboard to the rear, the residence offers three bedrooms, two living areas and a warm, character-filled atmosphere throughout.
On the ground level is a generous country-style kitchen with a small walk-in pantry. A formal lounge room features an open fireplace, while the second living area is enhanced by a freestanding wood heater. The home is rich in original period features including decorative wallpaper, leadlight windows, arched doorways, ceiling roses and much more. The third bedroom is located upstairs, providing a private retreat.
The property is held across three titles and is being sold as a whole. The land is fenced into three paddocks with open grassed areas and established fruit trees, offering versatility and space.
Services include mains power, town water, septic system, gas hot water and NBN internet available for connection. Additional improvements include multiple sundry sheds, a chook run, and a large workshop facing Linton-Naringhil Road, complete with power and a concrete floor.
A rare opportunity to secure a tightly held character property with history, charm and substantial land.
