Own a slice of the roaring twenties while still enjoying modern living in this stunning Lorn home, where masterful maintenance and thoughtful renovations create a home that's historically elegant and stylishly updated.
The block weatherboard, exterior lamps and white picket fence provide an abundance of old-world charm from the leafy street, and the street itself makes for a beautiful view while enjoying a morning coffee under the verandah's bullnose roofing.
Step through the ornate front door to find the high ceilings, blackbutt timber floorboards, and traditional skirting boards and architraves of the wide entry hall, and instantly feel at home in the bright, spacious floorplan.
A generous master suite sits at the front of the home with plush grey carpets underfoot and a bright view of the lush greenery outside. Custom built-ins flank the entrance to a tiled ensuite, which boasts impressive tilework and high-quality inclusions to provide some private luxury at either end of the day.
Bedrooms two and three echo the master with their built-ins, plush carpets, and windows to the surrounding greenery, and an open-brick fireplace adds some functional charm to bedroom three.
The main bathroom has been meticulously converted from a bedroom, creating a space that's as large as it is stylish. White subway tiling rings the entire room, contrasting beautifully with the sleek, matte-black vanity, while slate tiles to the floor harmonise the palette. This room conveniently incorporates the laundry facilities, meaning you can kick off your clothes and step straight into the large bathtub at the end of a long day.
At the end of the hallway lies a stunning open plan living area that impresses with its high ceilings, exposed beams, and a wealth of light filtering through the surrounding windows.
In the dining area, a decorative brick fireplace with a historic feature cooktop provides a glimpse of the home's heritage, while the kitchen's high-end inclusions seamlessly bring the space into the current decade. Soft-closing shaker-profile cabinetry provides an abundance of storage space to keep the stone countertops free of clutter, while the gourmet Ilve six-burner stove, wraparound splashbacks, and integrated dishwasher will make cooking and cleaning feel effortless.
Step through the glass doors of the living space to find a charming undercover deck that will be well-loved all year round with its minimal downlighting, three-sided shelter and established power outlets.
The deck extends onto a lush rear lawn that's peppered with greenery and bordered by established garden beds, with a bricked firepit platform area to provide some warmth and ambience to cool winter evenings.
The leafy suburb of Lorn is located across the Hunter River from Maitland and is renowned for its calm atmosphere and wide, tree-lined streets. A 900m stroll will see you to the Riverside Walk and the Levee's spread of cafes and restaurants, and an 11-minute drive accesses the Stockland Greenhills shopping and dining complex.
Very rarely do properties with such a high level of connection between retained heritage and a renewed home come to the market, and rarer still do they last for long.
