Nestled near the banks of the Hunter River awaits this period renovation rescue project, which is brimming with original features.
There’s no doubt this home needs a bit of TLC but with a range of period details and a charming, tranquil ambience it’s sure to be worth all the effort.
The weatherboard home is set on a 758sqm block, which means you have ample space to extend the existing home (STCA), which comprises three bedrooms and two living areas.
A brick and timber picket fence marks your entry to the property, which has lush, established front gardens, including fragrant frangipani trees.
Inside there are timber floorboards, high ceilings and a cast iron fireplace all waiting to be restored to their former glory.
A sunroom accessed via the living room and master bedroom is a peaceful spot to sit and read or use as a hobby room or office.
The living room features a slow combustion fireplace and a decorative ceiling that will be stunning with a bit of elbow grease.
With a refreshed bathroom and a more modern kitchen it’s more than conceivable to live in the home while you renovate to keep it in line with today’s contemporary lifestyle.
The spacious kitchen features contemporary timber cabinetry and long, laminated benchtops, tiled splashback, large pantry and stainless steel oven and gas cooktop.
It adjoins the large dining room, which flows out to a covered entertaining area.
The bathroom has been upgraded to feature tessellated floor tiles, a separate bath and shower, sleek modern vanity with good storage and toilet.
There’s also a second toilet located off the dining area.
Other notable features of the property include its wide allotment and fully fenced yard.
The backyard is leafy and quiet, with a traditional concrete ribbon driveway leading down to a detached single garage.
This is a rare opportunity to find a renovation project in a highly sought location close to Lorn’s cafe scene, recreational facilities and medical amenities.
