One of the original homes of the prestigious Windmill Estate, this distinctive Mount Gambier stone residence has been lovingly maintained and updated by one family for 75 years and is now offered to the market for the very first time. Featuring quality updates and modern functionality, the home offers comfortable living today, while its prime position and substantial land size allow further scope to enhance or extend (STCA) and add future value. Positioned within walking distance of Newtown’s private schools and Windmill Reserve, moments from the Barwon River and Queens Park recreational precinct, with easy access to the cafes, shopping and amenities of Pakington Street, GMHBA Stadium and less than 10 minutes from the CBD, the location delivers the ideal blend of peaceful, family friendly living with central convenience.
Built in the early 1950s, the Mount Gambier sandstone façade presents timeless appeal. A light-filled entry leads into the welcoming living area, revealing a spacious open plan design with north facing windows allowing natural light to flow throughout. The carpeted lounge transitions seamlessly to the dining and kitchen zone, where beautiful blackbutt timber flooring adds warmth and texture. Elegantly updated, the stylish kitchen features a large island, waterfall stone benchtops, quality Fisher & Paykel cooking appliances including a wall oven, induction cooktop and rangehood, an Asko dishwasher, smoked mirror splashbacks, contemporary pendant lighting and generous storage with a large walk in pantry. Well positioned to overlook the dining space and outdoor deck, the layout allows for easy everyday living and effortless indoor outdoor entertaining.
Three generous bedrooms all include built in robes, serviced by a tastefully updated bathroom featuring a bath, walk in frameless glass shower, double vanity, quality tapware and fittings, and a separate powder room.
Equipped for comfort and functionality, additional features include ducted heating, split system heating and cooling, day and night blinds, a well-appointed laundry with ample workspace and ironing station, and an additional linen press.
Outside, the central deck provides a private space for relaxing or entertaining. The surrounding grounds are well maintained, with a large lawn area for the kids to play in a secure setting. The long driveway and garage accommodate excellent off street parking, with a rear studio offering versatility for a workshop or storeroom.
Beautifully presented and ready to enjoy from day one, this unique property also offers endless potential to utilise the generous land to create your dream home (STCA) and lifestyle. A rare offering in a tightly held pocket of Newtown, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed.
