This amazing home is as modern as today, yet the street name is steeped in the history of Sailors Gully, where the brothers Hodgson were grocers and produce merchants who even minted their own pennies back in the day. The 21st century is certainly evident though, as the brick home is as shiny as a new penny in its own right. The owners have lavished it with care and attention, both inside and out, and now that it is time for them to downsize and travel they say, you can reap the rewards.

Set on 2841 square metres, (that’s about three quarters of an acre), the allotment on its own would be a treasure. Now add the huge home, a kitchen worthy of the Master Chef stage, a billiard room with its own built-in bar, gas log fire, and a dedicated WC, and bedrooms large and pretty enough to be a first class BandB, then you get some of the picture.

The bathrooms are private retreats too. The main bedroom’s en suite is very spacious, while the family bathroom has a luxurious corner spa bath. There’s a ducted vacuum system, refrigerated cooling, and 18 solar panels so you really do receive a cheque each quarter. If sheds are your thing look no further! There’s a double-garage, a purpose-built motorcycle shed that could be used for guest accommodation, bird aviaries and so much more.

From the landscaped front yard, where palm trees and hedges of trimmed diosma rule, to the back fence where sheds and fruit trees abide, this home is a prize, and located in a glorious position in Eaglehawk’s heartland.
