At 15 Hammond Street Yackandandah, The Willows is a home that has earned its quiet reputation over time.
Built in 1875 by the respected Yackandandah firm of Thornley Hall, this double brick residence stands on a tree-lined street, its proportions and presence is as contemporary today at it was 150 years ago. It was once the residence and offices of local pioneer John Molyneux - a history that lingers with Yackandandah.
Inside four bedrooms, a study or sunroom, separate living area and kitchen dining area offer a considered balance of original character and modern ease, set against a garden that has ensures colour throughout the seasons.
The details reward a closer look: granite window sills, timber-lined ceilings in the lounge and master bedroom, finely worked veranda lattice, and an underfloor cellar - the kind of craftsmanship rarely replicated today.
Each bedroom includes built-in robes, with a separate shower and toilet. A large wood combustion heater serves the living and dining room, complemented by reverse-cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort.
If outdoor living is important then you will enjoy the large north facing decking. There is a covered section for your outdoor kitchen while one half is uncovered for you to soak up the sun.
Outside, the practical considerations have been well met - a two-car carport, an updated ColorBond roof, two poly water tanks, a wood shed, chicken coop and a lock-up ColorBond shed.
Set on approximately 1,222m², the property sits within easy walking distance of Yackandandah's historic main street, supermarket, primary school, and pool.
A home of genuine substance.
