A rare and special opportunity now presents with this historic residence, over 108 years old, ‘Bantry House’, built circa 1906, by the Reynolds family, who migrated from Ireland and gave the residence the namesake, from the town of Bantry, Ireland. The residence was one of the first homes built on Hospital Hill and overlooked the family farm. It still enjoys a spectacular, uninterrupted view of surrounding farmland, the river and mountains beyond and a superb north/east aspect, for enjoyment of all seasons. The character & charm of the home is enhanced by; * Covered wrap around verandahs on three sides * 12ft ceilings, vj board linings, French doors, Colonial archway, fretwork & glass breezeways and original windows * Three bedrooms with potential self contained downstairs (two separate rooms, currently used as a workshop/storage) * Second toilet downstairs * Undercover car accommodation (plenty of room for a separate double garage as well) * Two street frontage * 400m from town centre The current owners acquired the home 3 years ago after rescuing it from an uncertain fate and set about ensuring its future structural integrity . They are ready to pass the baton to the next caretaker of this special home, to allow someone to continue the restoration process to the splendour it deserves. The home is not heritage listed so there really are no restrictions on how you perceive the potential in this lovely lady. We highly encourage your inspection to appreciate this special offering. The home is open for viewing Thursday 4-5pm and Saturday 11-11.30am.
