For the very first time since its construction in 1970, one of Ulverstone's most iconic family residences is being offered to the market.
Welcome to "Mdina", 130-132 Trevor Street, Ulverstone, a home rich in history, craftsmanship and timeless character. Lovingly designed and built by the Stevens family, this remarkable residence has remained in the same family for over five decades. Named after the historic walled city of Mdina in Malta, where the original owners were married, the home beautifully reflects their admiration for English architecture and European elegance.
From the moment you arrive, the home's individuality is undeniable. A custom-crafted entrance door, complete with the iconic solid brass dolphin door knocker synonymous with the buildings of Malta, provides an unforgettable welcome and sets the tone for the exceptional home beyond.
Stepping inside, you'll immediately appreciate the warmth of the beautifully refurbished original timber flooring, creating an inviting ambience throughout the ground level. Designed with both family living and entertaining in mind, the home offers two generously proportioned living areas, with the main family room centred around a traditional open fireplace and complemented by reverse cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort.
The formal dining room is a true celebration of classic English-inspired design, featuring a stunning servery window and a built-in cutlery and crockery cabinet seamlessly incorporated into the wall, flowing effortlessly through to the kitchen. While the kitchen remains largely original, its generous proportions and functional layout provide the perfect canvas for those wishing to create their dream culinary space while respecting the home's remarkable heritage.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with three spacious bedrooms, each complete with built-in wardrobes and breathtaking panoramic views. Wake each morning to sweeping vistas across the sparkling waters of Bass Strait, while to the south you'll enjoy the picturesque beauty of the Dial Range, Gawler's rolling hills and the ever-changing Tasmanian landscape.
The home is serviced by two well-appointed bathrooms, offering convenience across both levels. Downstairs features a shower and vanity, with a separate toilet nearby, while upstairs the main bathroom includes an easy-access shower, separate bath and adjoining separate toilet.
Outside, "Mdina" is every bit as captivating as the home itself. Occupying an impressive double allotment of approximately 1,400m² across two separate titles, the grounds are adorned with beautifully established gardens that have been lovingly nurtured over generations. A workshop, additional storage room adjoining the carport and an abundance of outdoor space provide endless possibilities for families, hobbyists or future development potential (STCA).
Recent updates, including freshly painted interiors and new carpets, ensure the home is ready to be enjoyed immediately, while retaining the authentic character that makes it so special.
From the stunning red cedar sash windows and elegant double doors to the ornate English-inspired detailing throughout, every corner of this residence reflects quality craftsmanship that is seldom found today.
Properties of this significance rarely become available. More than just a home, "Mdina" is a landmark residence filled with history, heart and endless opportunity. A home that has been cherished by one family for over 55 years now awaits its next custodian.
This is a truly once-in-a-generation offering that simply must be experienced in person to fully appreciate its beauty, scale and timeless appeal.
