Fresh to market for the first time in 60 years, this long-held family home on a botanical, stream-bound 1,736sqm section offers the chance to claim a property steeped in history and tranquillity.

Hidden from sight and introduced by a charming driveway, this home immediately establishes a sense of character that resonates through every corner.

Echoing the serenity of the garden setting, this well maintained home celebrates every inch of its heritage through high ceilings, timber floors and an arrangement of formal and casual living zones that complement its spacious five-bedroom layout.

The ground floor strikes a refined balance between preserved character and understated modernisation, featuring an elegant open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, a formal dining room and an expansive sitting room, all positioned to admire the picturesque and incredibly private gardens.

Two spacious bedrooms, a bathroom and essential amenities, including a laundry and guest toilet, also occupy the ground floor, while another three bedrooms and a second bathroom reside upstairs, ensuring the home accommodates the entire family with considerable ease.

A series of French doors continue the charm and open to a garden of remarkable beauty, where entertainment patios lead to a meandering path that traces the gentle course of the stream, creating a serene narrative through the grounds.

An adjoining double garage adds another level of practicality, further elevating the appeal.

Beyond the home's abundant character and space lies a layer of convenience underscored by zoning for elite schools, including CBHS, CGHS, and Burnside High, cementing its status as a family sanctuary.

After six decades in the same hands, the door opens for new custodians to claim their place in its next chapter.
