Tucked behind a charming white picket fence and lush cottage gardens, this enchanting C1913 Federation family home, “Ibrox Villa”, has been expertly crafted as a modern retreat while retaining the timeless essence of its era.

Be drawn to the inviting front verandah, a serene space that has hosted many a relaxed gathering, bathing in the glow of north-facing sunlight. Within the home, original details – leadlight and stained-glass windows, ornate fireplaces and impressive 3.4m ceilings adorned with intricate plasterwork – pay homage to its storied past as a home built for the Australian Agricultural Company.

Accessed from the wide, arched hallway are four spacious bedrooms, all thoughtfully appointed with generous storage, two graced by elegant cast iron fireplaces and bookshelves. You'll also find a sizeable formal living room featuring a cozy gas fireplace and louvred windows welcoming northern light and soft summer breezes – an inviting retreat for every season. Moving to the rear, the open-plan family hub unfolds, offering ample space for family and friends to gather. It showcases a gleaming stone-topped kitchen, perfectly positioned for overseeing outdoor fun, featuring generous storage and near-new appliances. Additionally, two bathrooms are well-appointed, the main presenting a classic clawfoot bath, adding elegance to everyday living. Ducted, zoned air-conditioning throughout rounds out the features in this lovely home.

Step outside to discover your own inner-urban sanctuary. From the solar-heated pool to the heated back deck and cozy firepit area, these outdoor entertaining spaces invite relaxation and effortless entertaining. The sustainable gardens, brimming with fruit trees and herbs, thrive thanks to the drought-proof design. Solar panels provide sustainable energy, and a charming cottage-style studio/shed at the rear offers granny flat or guest suite potential (STCA).
