Overview

Central Mid-Century Home

Every so often, a property emerges that captures your imagination and holds your attention. This iconic mid-century gem on a central corner block is one such find. Designed by renowned mid-century architects Tag Walter and Bruce Auty, and built in 1961 by esteemed local builder Russell Clark, this home was originally designed for a local family. Today, it is lovingly occupied by another local family, who have restored this home to its former glory and carried out renovations that honour and enhance its original character. From the moment you approach the front porch, framed with stacked breeze blocks and slate flooring, you're transported back in time. Inside, the home's thoughtful zoning ensures functional family living. The generous floor plan includes four spacious bedrooms (with a master featuring built-in robes and an ensuite), a family bathroom, and a large kitchen and dining area. The bathrooms have been sympathetically updated featuring terrazzo flooring and a playful mix of pastel mosaic tiles, complemented by custom timber cabinetry. The kitchen is a standout feature, showcasing top-of-the-line Bosch induction cooktop, oven and dishwasher, along with eye-catching baby pink cabinetry paired with grey stone benchtops and mosaic splash backs. Timber overhead cabinetry, floating shelving, and Blackbutt flooring, together with a lined ceiling, add warmth to complete this vibrant space. Clerestory windows above the dining and sitting areas flood the room with natural light and afternoon sun. The main living area is enchanting, with teal walls, floor-to-ceiling windows dressed in sheer drapes, a slate fireplace with a log fire, and northern light filtering through. The home is equipped with hydronic heating, newly installed wool carpet, and fresh paint throughout. It also includes two single garages, a side entrance with a mud room, laundry, and built-in storage. Outside, you'll find a decked outdoor dining area, a shower, and a detached studio/gym or home office, offering versatility for its next owner. The fully enclosed yard features established native trees, shrubs, and a productive lemon tree. Located in the heart of Port Fairy, just one block from the main street, this home has been thoughtfully reimagined to blend modern family living with a celebration of its mid-century roots and historical significance.
