Situated on a parcel of land some 1671 square metres in area, just minutes from central Yeoval is an opportunity for someone to restore a part of history back to its former glory.
Used as the Station Masters home until 1989 this property is unique in the building materials used in its construction. Although the outside appears to look like weatherboards, in fact it is formed concrete. Window frames are powder coated to alleviate painting which is a bonus because initially you will be busy painting something else.
A genuine return verandah encompassed homes perimeter and steel railway tracks have been partly used in its construction.
This home has a wonderful country look about it, but heres the thing, the roof was blown away in a storm, water has since damaged the Gyprock material and the carpets are beyond help. Come to think of it, so is the paint, but remember it is concrete construction so the bones are good.
There is plenty on offer here with high ceilings (although rather damp) and a sizeable floor plan including a loft bedroom with spiral steel stairway. 2 other well sized bedrooms and downstairs.
The kitchen is large and features laminated bench tops, Ceramic cook top, electric oven and is a Cottage timber finish. A dining area plus sitting room are adjacent to the kitchen.
An impressive bathroom is a big surprise with its claw foot bath, pedestal wash basin and tiles that highlight that rustic charm.
Outside you will find the double lock up colourbond garage with power connected and concrete slab flooring while Landscaping is a blank canvass.
In a nutshell, a great looking home with P.O.T.E.N.T.I.A.L in need of renovation and repair. Price will be determined by Auction to be held at 2pm Friday 12 September 2008 at the Wellington Civic Centre, Swift Street Wellington.
Inspections are by appointment by call Gary Francis from Raine & Horne Wellington on 0428 459 830 anytime or 6845 1222.
