DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES This unique property presents an outstanding opportunity to purchase a genuine piece of Kalgoorlie-Boulder history, and what a home it is. Built c.1890-1915 and once the home of our own Claude de Bernales in the typical Federation Bungalow style of the time, a dignified dwelling that presents an old-fashioned ambiance with many original character features but also with the modern conveniences having been added over the years.Walking through the leadlight doors at the front of the home simply takes you back. The house is situated on a very private 941sqm allotment and consists of 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom has been renovated over recent years to incorporate a large walk in robe, an en-suite bathroom and has its own tiled fireplace. The second (also with an open fireplace) and third bedrooms are both very good size and are well-positioned off the main passageway of the home.A formal dining room/family room features prominently at the front of the home, this beautiful room leads to the lounge room and kitchen both of these areas have open fire-places that have been functioning over recent years. The kitchen has a 900mm gas stove, butlers pantry and overlooks the superb gardens of the property.The family bathroom is immense in both size and unabashed style with cast iron bath, shower and vanity. This room lays indelible character to the era of the home and hints at what living in the early 1900s may have been like.Stepping outside the main home you will find the once servants quarters which could easily double as a teenagers retreat/4th bedroom if required. A large laundry, handy shelved storage room, 6mx6m powered shed with rear lane access, outside WC and carport completes this already outstanding package. Gas HWS.The low maintenance, yet amazing gardens are such an appealing factor.
