A graceful old lady with charm and character

First time offered in over three generations, this majestic old lady is waiting for a new family to make her their own. Situated in one of North Wards most prestigious streets, homes in this location rarely are available. Tree-lined Alexandra Street has long been regarded as a premier family location and many of its families have lived in the street for a long time with no desire to move on, making this property the perfect opportunity to move to this lovely address.

Surrounded by lush well established gardens well cared for over the years by the current owners, the garden is private, cool and inviting. Lovely established trees shade the rich colourful undergrowth. Separate sections of the garden bordered by gardens and shrubs provide secluded spaces or outdoor rooms, ideal for the kids to hide and play, and all this is situated on a large 1012m2 allotment.

The home itself is solidly constructed and would be the perfect blank canvas for your future renovation plans, lift up and build in under, add or extend, the option is yours. The enclosed front verandah hides the original heritage charm of the home from the street. The long central hallway including its central hall arch is still intact, as is the lovely original archway between what was the living and dining areas. Soaring high ceilings, ornate fretwork, wide pine floorboards covered with original lino are waiting to be polished. Pretty coloured glass casements and original sash windows add charm. This home really is a step back in time. Reminiscent of days gone by and fond memories of growing up in grandma's house. Opportunities like this don't arise often.
