Bill Wyndham and Co are pleased to present to you ‘Tara House’, one of Bairnsdale’s most significant historic homes.
This solid brick Victorian villa has been lovingly maintained and extended over the years, with all of its period features remaining intact. Twelve foot ceilings, ornate cornices and ceiling roses, beautiful timber mantlepieces, wide moulded architraves and authentic colour schemes combine to give us a home that will satisfy the most avid fan of heritage architecture.
Tara House has five bedrooms and four bathrooms, with two large living areas and a separate kitchen/dining. The versatile floorplan lends itself to many uses, ranging from a substantial family home, to a bed and breakfast or multi tenant situation.
The land measures 2424 square metres (5/8 acre), with a wide 40 metre frontage to Day Street. The block is a miracle survivor in this era of battleaxe subdivisions and strata titled unit developments. The house is centrally located on the block, and set well back from the street. The established trees and gardens provide privacy and shade, and set the house off perfectly.
There is plenty of room here for large vehicles, boats and caravans, and if a private shedding complex is on your wish list, take your pick of sitings.
Tara House, circa 1890, is one of only half a dozen solid brick Victorian residences surviving in Bairnsdale, and is one of the best preserved. It has been lovingly cared for by a series of sympathetic owners. While it has all the features of its classic period, aspects such as kitchen, bathrooms, plumbing, wiring and heating have all been updated, providing a comfortable living environment for 21st Century occupants.
