“Braestead” circa 1925 is set beautifully on its land. This striking character residence has been tastefully renovated and extended, maintaining its old world charm while adding an unashamedly modern influence. This gorgeous bungalow radiates street appeal and provides a quality home, smartly finished throughout with a versatile floor plan.

A central hallway, two living spaces, boasting elegant colour schemes, original fireplaces and abundant natural light, this is a home of rare comfort and beauty with seamless flow from old to new.

Two lovely bedrooms, with feature fireplaces, look out to the wide verandahs and garden beyond. The wonderful large country kitchen with modern 900 mm gas / electric cooker and walk in pantry is divided from the cosy library / reading room by a central gas fire.

Through the leadlight door to the “new world” all north facing and flooded with winter sun. Contemporary updates and finishes combine to create an
exquisite family/entertaining area with limestone feature wall opening through bifold doors onto the elevated deck and outdoor dining area shaded by a Markilux retractable awning.

The main bedroom is a real feature with its own private courtyard and ultramodern but timeless ensuite. Both bathrooms are new, beautifully appointed and well located. This wonderful home overlooks the cottage garden with its old fruit trees , raised vegetable garden beds, a great mixture of deciduous and evergreen and the pleasure of exciting changes throughout the year.

Easy vehicle access through the garden to the garage, carport and designer chicken house. Walk through the garden below the arching branches of the ancient oak to the character studio/store room and return to the house through the well planned terrace garden.
