Inside the home, the beautifully proportioned 'front' rooms include an entry, dining room, and two formal living rooms, all linked by French doors and featuring Tasmanian ash flooring and open fireplaces. Original features abound, including, sash windows, panelled ceilings, and brass fixtures.

The fully renovated contemporary kitchen seamlessly combines with the home's period elements and also capitalises on views of the mature garden and the adjacent walled winter terrace.
