"Hillcrest" - A Timeless Heritage Gem with Modern Comforts
Step into timeless elegance with "Hillcrest," a stunning historic hardwood character home, meticulously crafted to capture the charm and quality of a bygone era. Set on an expansive 1,305m² elevated allotment, this property offers panoramic views in every direction and enjoys cool breezes, creating an idyllic retreat for those seeking privacy, space, and a connection to nature.
From the moment you arrive, the classic features stand out-soaring 11-foot-high ceilings, polished hardwood timber floors, original solid timber doors, and casement windows. Timber VJ walls with picture rails and dado rails, as well as sweeping verandas at the front and back, evoke a sense of tradition and craftsmanship that is rare to find. Inside, natural light floods the home through ample windows, highlighting the custom-built robes, modern kitchen with exquisite timber benchtops, and expansive living and dining areas.
Hillcrest is as practical as it is beautiful, featuring reverse cycle air conditioning, a gas heater, ceiling fans throughout, insect screens, and Crimsafe doors for added peace of mind. The fully enclosed original veranda offers flexibility-whether as a serene sitting room, home office, or even a walk-in robe or ensuite for bedrooms 2 and 3, should you wish.
The home's large, covered patio invites year-round entertaining, and outside, established lawns and gardens, a fruit orchard, vegetable patch, and chicken pen enhance the country lifestyle. The spacious high-clearance carport accommodates caravans or motorhomes, while a Colourbond shed with power is perfect for hobbies or a workshop. A bonus original timber garage with power and roller door adds further value.
Sustainability meets convenience here with back-to-grid solar power, rainwater tanks for the gardens, town water access, and security cameras for added peace of mind. And with dual access points, privacy fencing on three sides, and ample room for a pool or play equipment, the possibilities are endless.
Located within walking distance to schools, shops, cafes, and the local golf and bowls club, "Hillcrest" seamlessly blends the ease of modern living with the grace of period features. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with all the comforts of today. Inspections are an absolute must and will not disappoint.
