" The Oak " Circa 1910 is a masterpiece of design and charm and impeccably presented for the discerning buyer. Named after the English Oak tree on guard at the front gate since the mid 1800's, the home was built for Mr Ken Pryor a master artisan plasterer for his family to enjoy in a tranquil setting. His skill is generously evident in the many lovely ceilings throughout including the magnificent library and domed ceiling of the original master bedroom.
You will marvel at the jeweled stained glass French doors, the Australian red cedar windows with beveled edge glass in the library, two ornate fireplaces, and chandeliers.
Walking through the beautifully restored original rooms of the home you enter the large open plan extension done in the year 2000, which seamlessly incorporates a new gourmet kitchen and family room before stepping out through French doors to a large covered entertaining terrace overlooking the pool and gardens.
