Historic 'Homewood', c1864, has been exquisitely reimagined to combine the refined elegance of a bygone era with contemporary modern living. Originally built for coppersmith Charles Homewood, the homestead's transformation is nothing short of breathtaking and is only fitting for a property holding such historical significance. The Norfolk Island Pine that towers in the front garden was planted in 1915 to celebrate the marriage between Elsie (born in the home) and Harold Smith, who went off to war with his two brothers and sadly, all never returned. It is now a reminder of a rich Anzac story of love and loss.
The heritage facade reveals a charming verandah adorned with beautiful fretwork, decorative tiles and a quintessential slate roof. The home's original footprint now accommodates four bedrooms, two with contemporary ensuites and two with open fireplaces. You will fall in love with the flawless interiors that showcase soaring ceilings, herringbone timber floors, decorative ceiling roses and an ornate archway. Moving through the link to the modern extension, you are met with cathedral ceilings and an abundance of natural light, which amplifies the space and volume throughout the open-plan living area. Oversized glass sliding doors connect to an alfresco deck and north-facing rear yard. The spacious kitchen is an entertainer's delight, boasting a 4.2m island bench appointed with stunning Calacattto stone, gorgeous navy-toned cabinetry and a large underground wine cellar complete with original stonework.
Ideally positioned a short walk from Shannon Ave and Pakington St restaurants, boutiques and amenities. Stroll to Ashby Primary School (zoned), while many of Geelong's private secondary schools are nearby. Only a 10-minute drive from the CBD, waterfront precinct and GMHBA Stadium. Close proximity to Geelong Train Station and easy access to the freeway will suit Melbourne commuters.
