Priceless Central Treasure Revealed
An absolutely stunning renovation completed with exquisite taste whilst retaining the historic features of this magnificent 1885 Double Bay Kauri Victorian Villa, nestled down a quiet no exit street in the heart of Devonport Village. This spacious, beautiful family home offers flexibility, currently configured as 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 3 living rooms, plus a charming office / studio (or sleepout) in the garden. Options include the possibility of 5 or more bedrooms including bonus income from Air B'nB if you choose, as upstairs is separately entranced and can be locked off from the rest of the house with 2 double bedrooms, bathroom, the 3rd living & a kitchenette. Twin balconies North & South offer inner harbour City views & sunsets, plus views to Mt Victoria.
From the moment you step through the front door, you will escape into another world, being impressed with the incredibly wide grand hallway leading you past the King & Queen stately bedrooms (both with ensuites & WIR), full stud height, original leadlight windows, polished Kauri floors through to the open plan granite kitchen and entertaining dining area. Open the French doors and immerse yourself into the North facing sun drenched garden and separate cottage. From the front door a mere 130m level stroll to the Village Cafes, Shops & Cinema, plus the Ferry service to the CBD on the Wharf, why would you need a car? ... but if you do, single garaging plus an off-street parking space are both available!
Almost too many features to recount in this exceptionally warm, extraordinarily spacious home with loads of storage, Heritage features faithfully preserved whilst enjoying all the modern conveniences and comforts of the present:
With a 3-week Tender, affording both conditional and unconditional offers to be submitted on 5th September, a flexible settlement date, quality chattels and an unenviable central Devonport location, I urge you to make a time to view privately, or attend any of the double open homes as soon as possible.
