A fine example of the lovely Queen Anne federation style, this superb home has been given a heritage overlay. It is impossible not to fall in love with its beauty and its superlative garden setting. Wrapped around the house, the lush garden is a constant source of delight with its secret areas, a birdbath here, a table in the sunshine there, garden beds curved lazily around a lawn and everywhere the songs of birds. There is potential for dual living within the home, which is largely untouched by renovation. While the floorplan offers scope for changing the use of rooms, the real magic of the makeover will be in incorporating the fantastic period features.
