Last Listing description (December 2024)

'Greystanes' circa 1910 is built in the Arts & Craft style, designed by the English Architect CFA Voysey and constructed for William Webster of the prominent firm AG Webster. Extensive use of English Oak and Cedar timber and the retention of classic original features throughout demonstrate a level of craftsmanship almost unobtainable in modern builds, whilst sympathetically implemented updates offer comfortable and convenient contemporary living. Privately nestled on a verdant allotment of 2544sqm in a quiet and highly coveted pocket of Sandy Bay, this is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial holding in this sought after locale.

A number of spacious living rooms across a flexible floorplan flow off the magnificent Cedar panelled reception hall. Perfect for entertaining friends and family, the well-equipped kitchen with sunny bay window seat has an integrated Lieberher fridge and freezer and Zip filtered boiling and sparkling water dispenser. The kitchen is open plan to the large living room with marble fireplace and built in wood burner, and access to a sheltered sun porch.

Along the hallway a formal dining room and sitting room opening onto the verandah provide further living space. A large stone paved courtyard at the rear of the property has a newly tiled solar heated saltwater pool and pizza oven for hosting at home over the summer months.

A scullery, linen press, powder room, laundry, workshop and additional WC complete the floorplan on the entry level.

The imposing oak staircase leads to the upper level, accommodating the private master suite with ensuite bathroom and walk in robe, alongside three further bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, an additional room currently configured as a playroom, a study and two central bathrooms.

Recently installed ducted gas heating and in floor heating in the bathrooms ensures year-round comfort. Original features comprising antique cut glass doorknobs and light fixtures, picture rails, leadlight windows, fireplace surrounds, hardwood floors and maid bells stand in testament to the home's era adding character and ambience.

Surrounded by verdant established grounds with mature plantings including Elm, Magnolia, Birch, fruit and citrus trees, there is dual access to the property and a double carport and off-street parking in the driveway.

Within easy reach of excellent schools and UTAS and walking distance of Nutgrove Beach, and Blac Fig café and deli, the Royal Yacht Club and numerous parks, everything a family could need or want is right on the doorstep.

Impressive in every way, the classic melds seamlessly with the contemporary right throughout this immaculately presented property, making it a rarity to market. This is an exceptional opportunity to secure an exquisite family home in a desirable neighbourhood.
