Overview

Step through the front door of this property, known as "Tremayne," to find a residence where historic charm harmoniously blends with modern comforts. This circa 1912 weatherboard home has been under the care of the same family for 45 years and has been attentively restored, preserved and enhanced by a highly regarded local eco-architect. The result is a residence full of character, innovative design, and a strong connection to its natural setting.

Upon entering, the broad hallway showcases notable heritage details, including soaring ceilings, intricate pressed metal finishes, polished timber floorboards, and elegant lead-light windows. These features generate a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout. The home offers four spacious bedrooms, catering to the needs of growing families, guests, or anyone desiring extra space for various uses.

Through the living areas, an abundance of natural light floods the rear living and dining rooms, which have been carefully configured to take full advantage of garden views. Expansive French doors provide a smooth indoor-outdoor flow onto a sheltered backyard deck, ideal for morning coffee or leisurely meals with guests.

The garden beyond is beautifully landscaped, offering a serene retreat with a tranquil pond, mature plantings, and options for both sun-filled and shaded outdoor seating.
