Built back in the 1890′s and steeped in history, this gorgeous cottage like Classic Stucco home has all the hallmarks of a bygone era.
Only upon your personal inspection will you fully appreciate the charm and character that this three bedroom home exudes. Its enchanting appeal is created by the 1890′s exterior design with timeless stucco walls, deep recessed window bays with awnings and shutters, four fire places within, and it’s high pitched roof. Situated on a 577m2 corner allotment the home is set behind the privacy of a high fence. The cottage garden is shrouded by the leafy jacaranda and other trees which ignites one’s inquisitive side as to what the inside of this special home might reveal.
Upon entering the front central hallway with feature archway, you sense the old world charm that home has to offer. The 11 foot ceilings, 10” kick boards, high set picture rails, substantial internal walls, solid timber doors and door frames together with the rock solid structure of the home states “they don’t built them like this anymore”.
The formal lounge room and separate dining rooms are exquisite. Their ambience encourages you to dine and entertain your friends in the comfort of these beautiful rooms, each enjoying a fire place, finished with classic mantel piece surrounds and brass framed hearths.
The grandeur of the two large front bedrooms is created by their impressive size and space to enjoy as you own private retreat. Both rooms have plenty of space to accommodate a sitting area, office desk, dressers, and book cases. The main bedroom also features a fire place and has large dual built in robes. The third bedroom is a pleasant room situated on the north east corner of the home capturing the morning light.
The country style galley kitchen features an original wood stove, supported by another upright electric oven with gas cook top. Natural gas is connected to the home. The homely functional kitchen has a central island bench and plenty of cupboard space and large wall pantry. The white washed stressed look bench tops and matching cupboard doors make for a delightful kitchen. It adjoins the quaint casual dining area adjacent to the back door to the home.

The history of “Kimora” suggests that in the early 1900′s the home may have been used as a School for a time, and it was also known as Kimora Private Hospital, established and run by Nurse Sinclair. It is befitting that the name of the home has been retained now for more than a century.
