"Burnside" a residence that is the epitome of the early Australian architecture midway of Georgian and Victorian this graceful home once enjoyed by our early gentry and for the last decades the pleasure of the lifestyle enjoyed by current owners, now reluctantly but genuinely offer it to a new custodian for the next era in its long and lustrous life.
The site so well chosen back in the 1800s on the crest of the hill enjoying summer breezes and frost free winters, once on many acres and now still retaining a generous 1134 sqm block with leafy gardens and sunny bright outlook.
Graceful is the word that shines from entering the rose lined circular pathway past the tranquil cast iron fountain to the shady wrap around verandah with original cast columns and lacework the pace slows down to appreciate every little detail of the ornate tradesmanship of the era.
The interior floorplan with long wide hallway and 4 generous bedrooms still so intact with well maintained original Australian Cedar timberwork throughout, working fireplaces and ornate high ceilings, the charm of this period has been both thoughtfully and tastefully melded with ceiling fans, built in robes and ducted air conditioning. The dining room is a versatile room that could be utilised as a further bedroom with fireplace and french doors to verandah.
The central heart of the home is the generous living area with split air and intriguing feature of skylight ceiling extension and remote blinds adding a real point of difference to the room. The kitchen and bathroom are both country style, kitchen with stone top, central bench and big gas cooker and the bathroom, loaded with charm has a vintage claw bath. The laundry is more of a utility room size with 2nd toilet facility.
The rear deck is inviting and takes advantage of the peaceful rear garden and adjoining shady paved terrace and the sizeable rear garden complete with vege patch and loads of green space. The car accommodation is also more than ample with 2 lock up and 2 carport as well as extensive off road hard stand area.
This fine property is awaiting its new custodian.
