A rare and wonderful opportunity to acquire a historic property only minutes from the centre of Deniliquin. “Woodside” homestead was established over/30 years ago, and set among beautiful shade trees and landscaped gardens, incorporating a tennis court. A gabled roof with slate tiles, magnificent rooms with Murray pine 16′ ceilings and wide open fireplaces, and a unique closed in verandah featuring wrought iron lattice work and polished Western Australian jarrah floors. Another verandah now forms a lovely sitting room complete with a large picture window, Coonara heater and French doors opening into the jarrah verandah. As with many historic homesteads, the original kitchen with its huge pantry and cellar access, had been separated from the main house, but now adjoins it. There is a formal dining room with a small ante room which also contains a stairway leading to the large cellar. A formal lounge with built-in bookcases, large master bedroom and equally large guest room, and two smaller bedrooms, bathroom and a separate laundry.
A double garage is directly attached to the side of the house, which is situated at the end of a gravel driveway lined with palms and peppers trees.
Water is provided by a new bore and freshwater tanks. The homestead has reverse cycle air conditioning and pumps service the home and automatic sprinkler system. This beautiful residence also features twin original outdoor toilets, used now for storage purposes only, but displaying a unique architecture and craftsmanship in the old brick and slate roof construction. Huge lock up machinery shed. Set on 100 acres of prime yellow box country, and if sown to dry land lucerne with summer rains, could become a green oasis, complete with prestigious residence and lucrative sideline for the discerning purchaser looking for quality, exclusiveness and old world charm, situated so closely to a growing service centre, and within easy distance to Melbourne. Property is in need of some maintenance.
