Since circa 1914, this exceptional Victorian on about 980 square metres has been on the market once only and now there’s a chance to snag a fine, fully refurbished family dwelling within a walk of the beach. Pressed metal ceilings, leadlight upper window panes, picture rails, numerous fireplaces and a grand hallway keep the era’s style at the forefront, but parquetry floorboards and contemporary kitchen and bathrooms are all about today. Four bedrooms include one upstairs which adjoins a modern study with bespoke cabinetry. The luxe bathroom is decked out in marble. Living areas are a lounge room, dining room and wonderful family-meals area where the all-class kitchen has a dishwasher and gas appliances. Out back is devoted to a heated, salt-water pool surrounded by extensive decking. Ducted heating, split-system, alarm, 3.5kW solar system, water tank, drip irrigation system and three-car garage with sauna and shower room are other attractions.
