The location, so close to the CBD, offers inner-city living with lots of class and the unusual layout and old-world features lend the home plenty of character.
With five large bedrooms and three bathrooms on 2009 square metres there is certainly space for a family.
From the moment you walk through the door you find stained timber doors, bay windows, high ceilings, deep skirting boards and chandeliers that add a touch of grandeur to match the tennis court.
There is an Axminster carpet throughout as well as ducted heating and split-system cooling.
Right of the entrance is a formal lounge area with open fireplace, and to the left is a study with fitted timber shelves.
One of the bedrooms is also located off the hallway, opposite the entrance to a large open-plan dining, living and kitchen area with wall oven, double sink and timber breakfast bar and benchtops.
The main bedroom boasts a large walk-in wardrobe and en suite while the remaining three bedrooms, each with a built-in wardrobe, are upstairs.
At the back of the house there is a laundry, toilet and cubby hole overlooking the grass lawn and the tennis court.
The garden also has a covered area for entertaining, a large “clubhouse” that was once the servants quarters, a building with a toilet, a shed for your tools, a vegetable patch, citrus and stone fruit trees, a six-vehicle carport that runs alongside the house, three water tanks and 26 solar panels on the roof to give the owners free electricity. What more do you need?
