Cloaked in a mantle of beautiful trees, the name Lanark stems
from an ancient Scottish meaning for a glade, or an open space in a
forest.
Established c.1895, Lanark displays many of the evocative
characteristics of its era. To use an effective time yardstick,
Lanark was established just 30 years after convict transportation
to Australia halted.
From the residence's poignant architectural design lines, through
its typical summer heat-flushing breezeway, wide-board timber
floors and ornate high ceilings, Lanark is a hidden treasure
waiting to be discovered by you.
But, despite Lanark's period eloquence, the home's been gingerly
brought into the current era via the additions of fully equipped
country style modern kitchen with adjacent breakfast/meals room and
a fully upgraded family bathroom.
The home's array of other lifestyle features includes 4 large
bedrooms, a very spacious formal lounge/dining room with high
ornate ceilings and wood burning heater, a laundry/mud room and
57m2 front-of-home bull-nosed garden verandah.
Lanark's residence is certainly family-capable and ready for its
next era.
One of Lanark's prime attractions is its fabulous 1.185 acre town
block. Yes, if you're feeling moderately fit, you can walk to
Woolworths or Aldi from Lanark.
Along with the obvious privacy and utility benefits associated with
a town block of this size, it's easy to think about home
extensions, or a second dwelling for use as a rental income, granny
flat or teenagers' studio. Also, there's plenty of space for
additional outbuildings, tennis court or swimming pool.
Another aspect of Lanark's large block with its 60.56m wide street
frontage and Canberra side of Yass location is its possible
subdivision potential. (Please refer to the bullet point about this
in the Property Technical Specifications section of this
listing).
Essentially, Lanark is a gem of a family property. Whilst you quite
simply miss its bygone era composure, Lanark is very much equipped
for today.
