The beautifully proportioned rooms have high ceilings and retain some original features such as plasterwork, window shutters, broad pine floorboards and granite walls, window sills, lintels and steps.

On the basement level there is a central hall with doors under the granite steps, giving independent access to front and back. This too originally had two enormous rooms either side of the hall The one on the left was the kitchen/dining room with patio doors leading to the back garden.

The front garden has pretty flowering cherry trees either side of the wrought iron gates leading to off-street parking for three cars. To the rear, the back garden is 12m long, ending at the wooden fence.The gardens have original granite walls on both sides.

This property is a fine blank canvas waiting for a new owner to re-invigorate it and give it fresh life as a contemporary home. While this has always been a single family home, many similar properties have the basement converted to a self-contained living space ideal for a multi-generational family or for additional income and alternative living spaces in the various stages of life.
