A treasured piece of Ashgrove history, “Kenilworth” is a beautifully preserved heritage residence dating back to 1886, set on an impressive 1,179m2 across three lots.
There is a timeless quality to homes of this era, built with a level of craftsmanship, quality materials and attention to detail that is increasingly rare today. “Kenilworth” showcases this beautifully, with polished timber floors, VJ walls, soaring ceilings, VJ ceilings and breezeways throughout.
The front and side wraparound veranda, together with the rear veranda, adds to the home's traditional appeal while providing multiple spaces to enjoy the established gardens and outdoors.
A thoughtfully designed rear extension complements the original home, creating a practical modern layout while respecting its heritage. The country style kitchen combines traditional charm with modern conveniences and connects easily with the rear deck and gardens.
Surrounded by established gardens, mature trees and abundant birdlife, “Kenilworth” offers a peaceful sense of privacy while being just 4.6km from the CBD and close to Ashgrove's cafés, shops, transport and excellent schools.
