Overview

Timeless Appeal and a little piece of Lambton History

It is like turning back time as you pull up out the front, wander up the curved pathway past the old fashioned gardens, up the central steps and across the wide front verandah to the leadlight entry door with side light panels and fixed leadlight panels over the door, then you step inside where you continue to be taken back to a different era. This home which overlooks lovely Lambton Park was built in 1928 for the Mayor of Lambton Tommy Johnson, Johnson Street, Lambton was named after him. The home was built by Smiths of Lambton and has many stunning period features throughout the property. There are plate rails in the hallway, timber features everywhere with fretwork in the centre of the hallway. The formal dining room has the original cast iron stove in the corner and the formal lounge room has a corner fireplace. The two front bedrooms both have leadlight bay windows and window seats and all 3 bedrooms are quite large. The sunroom which is at the back of the home is accessed through double doors from the lounge room or a glass panel door from the hallway. The only things which have given way to modern touches are the bathroom and kitchen to make them more user friendly. This home has amazing character and the Baker family who have owned the property since 1963 are the Bakers from the Bakery who are a part of Lambton's History. The Bakers owned the Bakery on the corner of Elder Street and Grainger Street. At one time 3 generations of the Bakers worked in the bakery. Frank Baker who was born in 1924 was the second youngest of the Baker Boys and the owner of this stunning property along with his wife Margaret. If a little part of Lambton History appeals to you then this home could be just what you are after.
