Auction Location: In Room - Salt Property
Set on an extraordinary 1834sqm parcel across two titles, at the top of Queens Road, in a quiet pocket of New Lambton, this gracious family home delivers a rare combination of comfort, space, and future potential. Situated in a peaceful neighbourhood, overlooking the natural bushland of Blackbutt Reserve and minutes from New Lambton Village and the Orchardtown Rd Shops, the property offers a majestic retreat with remarkable flexibility for families, and enormous potential for investors, developers, or builders.
Move in ready for buyers seeking elegance and functionality, the charming interiors are immaculately maintained across two levels, with exceptional scope to renovate or add contemporary updates. Across the generous layout are 5 bedrooms (three king sized), 3 bathrooms, and six separate spaces to gather friends and family, relax, or work; ideal for families who value space, privacy and quiet moments, and perfect for families who love to entertain.
First impressions do not disappoint. A sweeping driveway leads past manicured gardens to a classical porch and stately timber doors. Enter to an imposing marble tiled entrance hall that leads to a soaring timber staircase and opens to a library/office lined with classic timber shelves on one side, and the formal lounge room with its view of the tennis court, and gas fireplace, on the other. Both rooms offer classic proportions and are graced by beautiful bay windows overlooking the front gardens and the bushland beyond. A formal dining is connected to the lounge room and opens to grounds at rear of home. A generous kitchen sits between the dining room and informal family room.
Upstairs, a light filled space sits at the top of the staircase and provides a cosy spot for quiet moments. Accommodation is provided by three king sized bedrooms with ceiling fans and BIRs and two additional bedrooms with BIRs. An ensuite off the main bedroom, and a separate WC and family bathroom with both bath and shower, off the bedroom corridor, complete the accommodation offering. A large rumpus/games room sits above the garage and is accessed both from the upper-level bedroom corridor and from the garage itself, creating an ideal teenage retreat.
Outdoors, the grounds offer an enchanting playground; French doors connect the formal dining room with a tiled porch and expansive lawns and gardens. The full-sized tennis court, concrete swimming pool, and pagodas and outbuildings, enhance the lifestyle offering of this remarkable home.
A once in a generation opportunity – this property should be on the top of any list for the prudent investor or developer, and for buyers looking for a private home set in substantial grounds on the edge of village life.
