Overview
Set within Stanmore, a suburb noted for its charming village-like ambience framed by Victorian terraces and quaint cottages, this distinguished residence offers a rare opportunity. Rothsay, dating back to circa 1894, represents the elegance of late Victorian Italianate architecture, maintaining its rich heritage through nearly a century with only two owners.
This home is poised for revival by those who value character and historical significance combined with practical living spaces. Architectural features such as colourful leadlight door surrounds and ornate ceilings in the formal lounge and dining rooms create a refined entrance. Unique masonry arches, decorative marble and tiled fireplaces enhance the sense of enduring craftsmanship throughout the home.
The property provides a family-oriented layout with a separate family room and a functional gas kitchen enhanced by double glazing and contemporary air conditioning units for comfort. The combination of a bathroom and laundry alongside a guest toilet offers convenience for modern living.
Upstairs, four bedrooms provide generous accommodation, two boasting decorative marble fireplaces, while a functional bathroom and north-facing covered terrace add to the allure of the upper level. A level corner block of approximately 225 square meters benefits from east-facing side windows, allowing for excellent natural light and ventilation—a distinctive advantage often absent in comparable Victorian terraces.
