***INSPECTIONS BY PRIVATE APPOINTMENT ONLY***
Every now and then you’ll come across a rare real estate gem. One that has stood the test of time, boasts character and position, and if you’re lucky, one that has some significant history attached.
Constructed in 1910 by the Williamson brothers of Williamsons Rd fame, this exquisite Edwardian style residence is your chance to purchase something truly special.
Once visited by Dame Nellie Melba, the former orchard farmhouse known as ‘Culmara’ begins with flourishing established gardens and a secure gated front yard before you step inside to an elegant and detailed layout.
Step back in time to high ceilings, a huge entrance hall, one-of-a-kind leadlight windows and decorative walls that flow through into a formal living and dining room where a central fireplace and beautiful bay windows provide separation.
At the heart of the home, a stylish and well-appointed kitchen showcases sleek benchtops and quality stainless-steel appliances, thoughtfully designed to connect seamlessly with a convenient meals area and a sun-drenched second living zone.
Three bedrooms with vintage fireplaces compliment a magnificent main bedroom with its own en-suite and private French door accessed outdoor seating space.
Before you explore the incredible outdoors, discover a timeless bathroom, a versatile billiard room or semi self-contained unit with bathroom, as well as an entertainment room and additional retreat.
The class continues outside where manicured gardens encompass private seating areas, calming water features and large in-ground pool.
In a home that really has to be seen to be fully appreciated, a double garage with workshop, a store room, covered wrap-around porch, a cellar and additional off-street parking are just some of the inclusions.
If the opportunity to own a piece of history isn’t enough to sway you, then the location will certainly will.
Within walking distance to the Koonung Creek Reserve, Birralee Primary School and Westfield Doncaster Shoppingtown, close to Doncaster Secondary College, Macedon Plaza and Aquarena Aquatic Centre, with easy access to High St, Williamsons Rd, Manningham Rd, Doncaster Rd and the Eastern Freeway.
