What's around 89 Fern Street

Sold by ANGIE RITCHIE & RYAN STALGIS

Perched atop a hill overlooking the ocean in Gerringong, the original Gerringong Police Station is being offered to the market for the first time in over 90 years. Serving as the police station from 1882 to 1933 before being transformed into a private residence, this property is constructed from locally sourced sandstone, bluestone, and Australian red cedar, showcasing the craftsmanship of Australia's past. Meticulously renovated while preserving period features, this property blends historical charm with modern comfort. Grand sandstone stairs lead to the front entrance, where your journey begins. Currently used as a sitting and dining room, the covered front veranda stretches across the house, offering spectacular views over Werri Beach, the headland, and surrounding mountains. Step through the original Australian red cedar door and enter a wide hallway with high ceilings, hardwood floors, and an elegant glass pendant, offering a glimpse into the home's storied past. From the hallway, three spacious bedrooms await, each with beautiful glass windows, fireplaces, original hardwood flooring, patterned ceilings, and wooden sash windows. These rooms retain the home's historical charm while providing modern comfort. The kitchen has been tastefully renovated, featuring a large island bench, Caesar-stone counters, quality integrated appliances, blending style with function. The updated bathroom retains high ceilings and charming windows, featuring a porcelain claw foot bath. The side entrance opens to a foyer, complete with an original sandstone peephole leading to the gaol. The living area, a true highlight, is located in the original exercise yard of the police station's gaol. This space contains two original gaol cells, complete with iron doors and bars, offering an extraordinary historical feature. These spaces are versatile, suitable for use as a bedroom, office, or more. Outside, the property sits on a 1474m² mostly level block, with established gardens offering surprises like a custom-built two-level cubby house, original copper in the laundry, and a well. At the rear, a large timber deck area is ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation, offering breathtaking views. This property holds "Local Council Heritage Significance," opening up opportunities for extension or development within specific guidelines. Previous Development Approvals (DAs) for extensions are available upon request. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Australian history.
