87 Dorking Road, Box Hill North, VIC 3129

建于1891年，为尊敬的Box Hill居民William Thodey量身定制，这座独特的文化遗产别墅展现了著名墨尔本建筑师Arthur E. Clarke的法国第二帝国时期建筑风格，内部外部均保存有许多令人着迷的特色。

占地1799平方米，这座房产在过去的123年历史中，曾为一些杰出的家庭所拥有。但现在，它亟需一次体贴的翻修，以恢复其最初的辉煌。

"McCook House"这个名字是为了纪念它深爱的前居民而命名的，它是Whitehorse地区唯一的法国第二帝国时期住宅建筑，提供了一个独一无二的机会。

外观上，这座庄园的经典红砖立面与宽阔的阳台、复杂的彩色玻璃前门、精美的托架和带crest的铸铁塔楼相得益彰，塔楼俯瞰着广阔的庭院。

室内，天花板高耸，设有宏伟的雕刻拱门和装饰线脚，原始硬木地板和壁炉。

其中一个房间内还有一幅引人入胜的壁画，据信这是Winifred McCook女士曾用来存放她多次探险至NT、WA和巴布亚新几内亚收集的珍贵文物和物品，以保存土著文化的记录。

该住宅的灵活布局包括正式的客厅和餐厅、厨房以及一间洗衣/mudroom，还有5间宽敞的卧室、一间书房/更衣室和浴室。

地理位置便利，靠近Kerrimuir小学、Our Lady of Sion学院和Box Hill花园。距离Box Hill高中、Box Hill Central、医院和东郊高速公路仅几步之遥。

87 Dorking Road, Box Hill North, VIC 3129 Once-in-a-lifetime Renovation Opportunity

Built in 1891 for esteemed Box Hill resident William Thodey, this unique heritage-listed villa features a distinctive French Second Empire design from notable Melbourne architect Arthur E. Clarke, revealing fascinating preserved features both inside and out.

Nestled on a 1799m2 block, the property has been called 'home' by a short list of distinguished families over the course of 123-years history, but it's now in need of a sympathetic renovation to restore its original splendour.

Potential to be one of the most magnificent homes, the property referred to as the 'McCook House' in honour of its beloved former residents - is the only known example of domestic French Second Empire architecture in Whitehorse, making it a one-of-a-kind opportunity.

Outside, the mansion's classic red-brick fa?ade is enhanced by a sweeping verandah, an intricate leadlight front door, ornate brackets and a cast-iron crested turret that gazes out to the sprawling grounds.

Meanwhile, the untouched interiors features high ceilings, grand carved archways and moldings, original hardwood flooring and a decorative fireplace.

There's also an intriguing and elaborate mural in one of the rooms, which is believed to be where the former resident, Winifred McCook, stored valuable artefacts and items from her many expeditions to the NT, WA and Papua New Guinea, in a bid to preserve records of native culture.

The home's versatile layout encompasses formal living and dining rooms, kitchen and a laundry/mudroom, plus 5 large bedrooms, a study/dressing room and bathroom.

Convenient to an array of desirable amenities, such as Kerrimuir Primary School, Our Lady of Sion College and Box Hill Gardens. Just moments from Box Hill High School, Box Hill Central, the hospital and Eastern Freeway.
