The width and depth of the gardens sitting on approx 1600sqm feature private leafy retreats with nooks to relax in, multiple sheds, and mature trees that accentuate the space while the home's noble facade opens to warming interiors that are ready to be enjoyed.

Fall in love with the beauty this timeless treasure reveals as you enter the abode, an elegant foyer embraced by handsome Japanese oak timber paneling, the stunning tas oak spiral staircase, and a luxuriously wide hallway with original hardwood flooring that introduces the old world grandeur and the stately proportions that are hallmarks of properties of this era.
