The original Manager’s Residence for the Elders Stock Sales has long outlasted the cattle yards that it once overlooked. One can only imagine the views of Normanville and the Cattle yards from this veranda back in 1920 when this truly captivating double red brick residence was built. One of the few homes of this era I have seen in such good condition but entirely original in its feel; a remarkable testament to the current long term owners. Their patience and steadfast commitment to the original nature of this home have it in truly lovely condition yet
I am sure it would be completely identifiable and familiar to the very first occupants.
Come look at this home, its lofty cool rooms have not been spoiled by superfluous additions or thoughtless alteration; it is as it was. Offering three bedrooms, one bathroom, adjoining laundry, a walk-in pantry off the eat-in kitchen, front lounge (fire places in both the lounge and in what could be the second bedroom unused but available); prepare to be charmed by this bungalow, it is a gem. The home and outbuildings are spread across three titles, it’s corner position adjacent town centre and totalling approx. 2045 sqm. The deep veranda has commanding views; looking as it does towards Normanville’s leafy village centre which is quite literally a few minutes walk from the door. Views south toward the distant hills and coastal cliffs give a sense of the commanding position the home would have had in 1920.
Both a single and a double sized shed with a number of other outbuildings all in nice order offer various useful spaces. Surrounding much of the home, the fastidiously maintained country style gardens and return driveway complete this interesting package.
