Last Listing description (July 2017)

This fine Federation style residence was named "Balnagowan" after a castle in the Scottish Highlands. Home and fortress to many centuries of the Clan Ross, the name was derived from Gaelic words which roughly mean "village of blacksmiths" - an appropriate moniker for a home in a city built on gold mining and owners with Scottish heritage.
Located just a heartbeat from the city, the solid brick residence has a wealth of perfectly preserved period details successfully blended with today's modern needs. Behind the high brick fence, a bluestone path rises through tranquil gardens to the timber balustraded return verandah. Enhanced by delicate lead-light glazing, the front entry reveals a wide hall featuring polished floorboards, lofty decorative ceilings and Anaglypta panels under the dado rail.
Three large bedrooms and remodelled bathroom open off the hall. All bedrooms have built-in robes, the front two include stunning bay windows. Grand formal lounge features another bay window along with an elegant marble open fireplace, large plaster ceiling rose and access to the side verandah through a matching lead-light glazed door. Adjoining formal dining room flows through to a spacious open-plan kitchen, meals and living area.

Elegant study (or fourth bedroom) includes heating/cooling, built-in cabinetry and French doors opening to a private, vine-draped courtyard while a study/utility room includes storage and a dry cellar.The functional kitchen has timber bench tops, dishwasher, gas/electric cooking and pantry while the very spacious family sitting room overlooks the courtyard and outdoor entertaining areas. Large rear gardens include brick-paved paths, a shady pin oak tree, and vegetable bed, citrus trees, rainwater tank and lock-up double carport accessed from Acacia Street. Impressive in every way, Balnagowan has street appeal, period grace, family space and an enviable city-edge location where you can walk to everything ?? Rosalind Park, the arts precinct, fine dining, shopping, schools and sporting facilities.
