Behind the large Cypress hedge sits this Federation beauty. Built for Cr John and Elizabeth Shaw by F E Watts of Latrobe in 1916, the quality and craftsmanship are evident.
The rear entrance has the addition of a sitting/sun room, just perfect for those morning cuppas. Inside you are greeted by the remodeled kitchen as well as the adjoining bathroom/laundry, then apart from the exceptionally clever and effective ventilation system the home is very much untouched, original and in splendid condition. The wide hallway and eleven foot ceilings with pressed tin and ornate roses give an air of stateliness as does the four, more than generous bedrooms, three of which have built in robes. The impressive formal lounge is lined with Tas Oak dado and features an Edwardian fire surround along with the large bay windows with coloured glass panels that were a further attribute of the era.
Outside, the hot house is perfect for year round fresh garden produce and an early start for your prize tomatoes! The rest of the grounds are a mixture of fruit trees, perennials and lawn. Fully fenced and screened by the manicured hedge, the front yard and wide verandah on just under 1300m2 complete the residence.
