LISTING DESCRIPTION
as of September 2010

Wellington House Circa 1883 This majestic property was built by former Acting Premier of Victoria George David Langridge, a man who forged a career in Victorian politics and championed the cause of the working classes having started as a carpenter and trying his luck in the goldfields.In 1923 the property became a convent to the Sisters of Charity with a foundation stone commemorating its opening by Archbishop Mannix.This faded gem is in need of substantial renovation and refurbishment to restore it to its former lustrous glory with its grand entry to two spectacularly large interconnecting drawing rooms that once would have seen grand balls.Upstairs has seven rooms plus a bathroom built over the driveway and a 2nd maids stair to the kitchen, with four large rooms downstairs. There is a coachman???s cottage/stable at the rear and a sumptuous quantity of land to the house???s east.Sitting on approximately 18,000sq.ft (1670m2) directly opposite Darling Gardens with commanding views across the treetops to the city skyline this home will again become a showpiece in the area.
