It may be a Victorian charmer on the outside, but inside it’s all about today, with a stunning renovation elevating it to glamorous living. High ornate ceilings and fireplaces remain, but every room is on-trend contemporary, while outside it has a swim spa and pool house/studio amid beautiful north-facing gardens. Three bedrooms are downstairs, each with robes (one with walk-in) and they share a stunning bathroom. The extra-big main is up top; it has a cast-iron fireplace, a dressing room and an en suite to beat most hotels (truly beautiful). Downstairs, at the back, a gorgeous living zone (with inset wood heater) anchored by honey-toned floorboards is next to the kitchen with island bench and all the mod-cons. Within a stroll of the beach and botanic gardens, this alluring property has hydronic heating, air-conditioning and a double carport.
