6 Paterson Rd, Bolwarra is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces. The property has a land size of 1846m2 and floor size of 211m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in January 2014.
This rare opportunity now exists to own, inhabit and enjoy life in this unique and exquisite landmark home in Bolwarra, moments from Maitland, the heart of the Hunter Valley. This is a warm, family home whose current owner feels with their own children grown up and moved on, this home deserves to be enjoyed and enlivened with the activity and appreciation of a new, growing family.
The wide verandas and lush gardens provide the perfect setting for children to play, while the home itself, solidly constructed is a secure, comfortable haven.
Above the front door of this impressive Victorian residence, the name Tregothen is visible in the fan light [among the other panels of boldly coloured glass] emphasising the entry. The current owners have painstakingly restored the home with authentic materials in the original style. This included replacing a panel of this glass surrounding the front door with a hand tinted French glass panel made specially to match those remaining. This is indicative of the level of care applied to the entire 26 year reconstruction process, making this home an important and recognised part of our local history.
The existing home was faithfully rebuilt and restored, room by room. Traditional materials and fittings were matched to the original features to complete this fully restored Victorian home. An extension has been added in the same meticulous way to better accommodate the busy lifestyle of todays families.
An open family room off the modern kitchen is a relaxed, casual space that connects to the alfresco entertaining area across the rear of the home maintaining the informal atmosphere. A BBQ and large 12+ seat table comfortably fit on the paved area adjacent to a colourful and shapely courtyard garden.
In contrast, the front of the home hosts the formal lounge and dining rooms, entry hall and original bedrooms. The amount of detail in the plaster ceilings indicate the hierarchy of these rooms, thus, the lounge room is clearly of importance. The vaulted ceiling with painted highlights to the intricate plasterwork is an incredible master piece, as is that of the master bedroom with an embossed floral hoop around the ceiling.
The residence is situated on a generously sized lot with established, mainly informal gardens that complement the home beautifully. An approval exists for a pool that was planned to go in next to the workshop beyond the gate. The workshop is fully functional with a sink and electricity, plus opportunity for further storage. The double garage opposite has more storage space a loft above, this could become an ideal art studio, teenage retreat or protected storage space.
Back inside, there is no shortage of storage, a sizeable walk-in store room with solid floor to ceiling shelves to solve any storage space issues.
Polished Kauri pine floors provide a strong solid base, Australian Red Cedar timber is used throughout the home, in the skirtings, doors, window frames and casements. Surprisingly, even the fretwork adorning the portico at the front of the verandah is actually carved Red Cedar, as too is the decorated gable embellishments and finials.
There is nothing flimsy about this home, at a grand 119 years of age, the wonderful home stands tall, straight and proud, awaiting a new family to inhabit its walls.
