Federation homes continue to be sought after for their history and character and this one is no exception. A perfect marriage of traditional character and with many lovely features that you would expect with high timber ceilings, timber flooring, lead lighting and much more. The location speaks for itself if you want to be in the 'hub' of the town, with level walking distances to all amenities. This home could be a 4 bedroom abode or if you prefer the front room that we showcase as a lounge could be large double 3 bedrooms with an informal and formal living room.
The home is situated in the main street of the town and would be a perfect rental or Air BnB option. The usage of the rooms in the home could be the traditional 3 bedroom with large 2nd living/formal dining, or if you wish to have an extra bedroom or rumpus area of course it lends itself to that also. The front living rooms has a beautiful bay window and leadlight feature windows.

The outdoor entertaining area is decked and under cover and yes we can call it a huge space. It certainly is a generous area that you could do so much with. Line it, build sections in for added weather screening, a pizza oven, BBQ area and so much more. Sit and enjoy the lovely treed grounds and you could create a fabulous cottage garden.
I'm told this historic home was Longford's original blacksmith's shop and stable. The home is not listed on the Heritage Register.
