Held by the same family for almost half a century, this remarkable circa-1900 residence is being offered to the market for the first time in 48 years. Originally built for the Hardman family, the home combines timeless character, generous proportions and flexibility on a substantial 775sqm parcel.
Beyond its charming double-fronted façade and traditional verandah, the home reveals a wealth of original features including soaring ceilings, decorative fretwork, timber flooring, wide hallways and fireplaces that speak to the craftsmanship of its era.
Accommodation comprises three generous bedrooms plus a study, with potential for an ensuite, alongside spacious living and dining areas that retain the warmth and character of the home. The kitchen is well-appointed with ample storage and functionality, while the large bathroom, separate toilet and dedicated laundry add further practicality.
Adding to its appeal is the property's dual residential and commercial zoning, creating a unique opportunity for a range of buyers. Whether you're seeking a distinguished family home, professional consulting rooms, a home-based business, or a strategic investment (STCA), the flexibility on offer here is truly exceptional.
Outdoors, established gardens provide a private setting, complemented by a covered entertaining area, rear lane access, additional carport accommodation and a substantial double garage/workshop. Solar power further enhances the home's efficiency and everyday liveability.
