Last Listing description (May 2013)
It is unlikely that your search for a period home with extensive grounds was originally based in Leopold but if it is history, privacy and space you seek then prepare to be pleasantly surprised. In fact, that is quite the understatement - this property will leave you completely smitten!
Given the increase in outstanding local amenities in Leopold, this ever popular suburb within ten minutes of both ocean beaches and Geelong's CBD is the perfect township with a tight-knit (and ever so friendly) community atmosphere that is also home to a completely unexpected surprise in this original Victorian farmhouse set on just under an acre of impressive gardens and pastured paddock.
Tucked behind private, screening shrubs and traditional picket fence, this weatherboard home offers all of the period detail you hope to find and a sympathetic extension that caters to a modern family's needs. In the original portion of the home, 2 massive bedrooms either side of the central hall with its polished floorboards and soaring ceilings open up to a light, bright living room and children's rumpus/study area with direct access to the decked verandah and stunning cottage gardens. Beyond these, the newer part of the home has been arranged and finished to compliment the style with an enormous kitchen (complete with timber benchtops, leadlight windows and stainless steel appliances), equally sizable family room and dining nook leading directly onto one of the alfresco areas - this one blending into the garden with a vine covered pergola.
A clever home office/study space in the main living area can be concealed with the use of its bi-fold doors, while the family bathroom with its tessellated tile flooring, antique vanity and claw foot bath speak of luxuriously long soakings. A short passage at the other end of the family room allows access to the second (and larger) alfresco entertaining area outside as well as the guest bedroom and master suite. You would never believe when waking up in this large room with window seat overlooking the garden that you were minutes from coffee shops and cafes. The WIR, ensuite and separate WC are testament to the modern era but the outlook and feel of this secluded area provide a wonderfully timeless feel.
Classically decorated, the home is warm as well as practical and is a real treasure that is only enhanced by the features surrounding it. A paved drive leading to both single and double carports (the double with remote roller door) and an oversized double garage are perfect for the family with multiple vehicles and hobbies or trades whilst the 23,000 litre water tank is handy for keeping the lush English styled gardens well fed. A large open lawned area at the rear of the garden suits children's play and a separate pastured paddock would be the ideal space for your very own smallholding. There is plenty of room for a vegetable patch and the possibility of development. This property is an oasis that is well deserving of your enamoured appreciation. A true beauty and an astonishing find; you are bound to fall hopelessly in love at first glance!
