Steeped in history and rich in character, Loyola is a truly rare offering. Built circa 1907 and set across two titles, this exquisite Victorian-style residence delivers an exceptional blend of period elegance and modern comfort.
From the moment you step inside, the home's 12-foot ceilings create an immediate sense of space and grandeur. The formal lounge is a standout, showcasing a stunning pressed metal ceiling, while the hallway features intricate pressed metal dado panels-a beautiful nod to classic Victorian craftsmanship. The bedrooms continue the theme, highlighted by Baltic timber ceilings, polished Baltic pine floorboards, and four original fireplaces with cast-iron inserts, each adding warmth, authenticity, and charm.
The solid timber kitchen is both inviting and functional, featuring stone benchtops, newly installed Blackbutt flooring, and exquisite leadlight windows and doors that flood the space with character and natural light. Indoor comfort flows seamlessly outdoors, with expansive wraparound verandas and a generous 7m x 4m rear deck, perfect for entertaining or relaxing in peaceful surroundings.
Modern conveniences have been thoughtfully incorporated, including a built-in laundry, a luxurious clawfoot bath, and a newly updated shower. In 2008, the home underwent a comprehensive renovation and extension, including full rewiring, replumbing, insulation, and restumping, ensuring long-term durability while preserving its historic integrity. Year-round comfort is assured with electric ducted heating and cooling, complete with zoned climate control.
Outside, the home is framed by a beautifully maintained cottage garden, brick pathways, and an automated sprinkler system. A charming period-style fence enhances street appeal, while an external toilet adds everyday practicality. Parking and storage are well catered for with a double carport and an adjoining 6m x 6m powered workshop with a concrete floor.
The second title offers exciting future potential, already connected with power and sewer, making it ideal for further development (STCA).
Loyola is more than a home-it's a timeless treasure that celebrates Victorian elegance while
delivering modern-day living at its finest.
