This beautiful sandstone return-verandah villa set in stunning landscaped gardens with enviable rear access perfectly retains elegant original features while offering space and flexibility for contemporary living. In this premier location within a short walk of vibrant shopping, cafes and restaurants, the city is just a stroll away through the nearby parklands.

Behind glorious roses in the front garden, the home has a stunning street presence with sandstone to the front and return, shady bull-nose verandahs, decorative gables and traditional leadlight door surrounds. Set privately behind a secure stone and iron fence and walled gardens to the side and rear, the configuration maximises the substantial corner block with an enviable rear access and side-by-side garaging from Hughes Lane. Entering the home the attractive faade transforms to spacious and practical with renovations and extension designed to augment the substantial home and maximise light and space. High ceilings, polished floorboards and a sparkling white palette promise the perfect setting for a beautiful lifestyle. The wide hallway is the perfect welcome to the home flowing to the rear living spaces. All original rooms are large with elegant character elements including polished floorboards, fireplaces, feature tiles, high architraves and ceiling coves. The formal sitting room makes for a fabulous large lounge or separate living room with a magnificent marble fireplace as centrepiece. Filled with light this is a zone within the home which could easily be reconfigured with an adjacent lovely bedroom to create a dining/living room, separate study or separate space for multigenerational living. The main bedroom is large and airy with the potential to create a luxurious private suite. A walk-in-robe and sizable ensuite complete with spa flow through to a large room currently configured as a parents study. Presenting with built-ins, wall-to-wall shelves and cupboards, imagine the potential for an indulgent dressing room with space to display all the accessories and benches for a perfectly lit make-up station/ dressing table. For young families, create the perfect nursery.
