169-171 Boundary RoadWHITTINGTON

This double storey brick Victorian Regency building dates from the 1850's and is the original Black Swan Hotel and a Cobb & Co staging post. The buildings work detail is typical of 1850's hotels in Geelong and it is one of the few original hotels of social significance in the area. Its name was changed to the White Swan sometime before 1881 and after losing its license in World War 1, it became a residence. Lovingly restored, it has all the charm and characteristics of the Victorian Regency style with the modern conveniences of today subtly integrated throughout. Downstairs you will find a living area, dining room and kitchen with polished floorboards flowing throughout. The kitchen includes all the modern conveniences including dishwasher and 900ml oven. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms also with polished floorboards. Gas heating is present in just about every room along with beautifully ornate fireplaces. Outside is a courtyard which you can make your own. This home has a large private and secure backyard and a great deal of potential, ideal for someone looking to perhaps run a thriving local business from home and still have all the amenities you need for a residence as well.
