Warrnambool VIC 3280

Now and then a home that is a true treasure trove hits the market; unchanged and in amazing condition, this home is a time capsule and a glimpse into an era of days gone by. The home has stood the test of time and remains a steadfast classic draped in wallpapers from bygone eras, detailed ornate chandeliers, traditional mantle pieces with open fireplaces, Axminister carpets and gorgeous lead lighting synonymous with honourable, timeless homes. The sheer height of the building is notable, towering ceilings and a classic bull nose verandah leave you feeling dwarfed from the moment you step inside the front door, a wide arched entranceway concludes in lead lighting at the end of the passage enhancing the feeling of times past. The home has three bedrooms, a living area and a formal dining room which could easily adapt into a fourth bedroom if required. The kitchen retains the original open hearth for a combustion wood stove plus there is Blackwood kitchen cabinetry with overhead and under bench storage that hugs two walls leaving space for a kitchen table. Sitting on a 771m2 (approx.) block with a mix of mature trees, shrubs, roses and classic cottage plants that you would remember from your nana's garden, the home is only a short stroll to Warrnambool College and within walking distance of the Warrnambool Race Course, sporting facilities and major shopping complexes. This is a home you need to walk through to truly appreciate its splendour and history - this timeless beauty will not last long in today's market!
