Overview

Elegance exemplified, captivating family home

A home of genuine character and generous scale, this superbly presented two-storey Georgian Revival residence is set within 1,000sqm of established grounds in a quiet Avonhead cul-de-sac. Classic brick-and-shingle construction, a slate roof, and ageless timber joinery establish the home's heritage profile, while considered updates, including double glazing, enhance comfort without compromising character. Across the interiors, timber flooring, French doors, dynamic checkerboard entrance, chandeliers, pedestal basins and brass fittings are layered with warming tones, rich wallpapers and quality fabrics give depth and definition. Covering approximately 320sqm, formal and casual living rooms on the ground floor give the home a natural sense of occasion and the ability to host at scale or retreat to a quieter corner. With French country detailing, a butler's sink and granite benchtops, the kitchen commands the open-plan living and dining zone, flowing out to a large north-facing terrace and the sweeping lawn beyond, where a private pavilion offers a slower change of scene. Flexibility is factored into the floor plan, with a large double bedroom, bathroom and separate toilet on the ground floor, while upstairs four further bedrooms are supported by two modern bathrooms, including the spacious master with its own elegantly appointed ensuite. Warmth is economically managed through under-tile heating in the bathrooms, heat pumps, including a fully ducted upstairs system, and an electric fire set within a traditional surround that preserves the home's identity. Functionality is thoroughly addressed with a dedicated laundry, internal-access garaging, additional storage sheds, and garden structures offering sheltered spaces for entertaining or relaxing. From its naturally peaceful setting, convenience to Avonhead Mall, airport, and streamlined access to the city are matched by zoning for Merrin Primary and Burnside High School, positioning the property for families who value space, tradition and a quieter pace of life.
