Dating back to the 1850s and boasting all the charm and character from the era, this delightful home is ideally suited to the period enthusiast or renovator. Originally, part of the home served as Learmonth hall and was located on the north side of High Street. This was where the local newspaper the "Learmonth Thunderer" was published during the gold rush boom. In the 1880s the hall was shifted across the road and converted to a residence. With many original features still intact, including some original pressed metal that are concealed behind false ceilings. Restoration of the property would reveal grandeur and beautiful character. The home comprises 3 generous bedrooms with a large bathroom, a separate powder room, a dining room, a formal lounge room and a large rumpus area. The quaint galley style kitchen includes an original IXL wood stove as well as 900mm stainless steel gas cooker, while the lounge contains a wood heater which serves as the main heating for the home. One of the bedrooms has been raised to enjoy a view towards the Lake. Set on an enormous allotment of more than 2,000m2 and superbly positioned close to the lake, in the quaint and quiet town of Learmonth. The home is surrounded by a large garden with 3 sheds, a chicken coop, vegetables and more than a dozen fruit, nut trees and vines. The varieties include almond, apple, apricot, bay leaf, cherry, chestnut, feijoa, grape, kiwi fruit, lemon, loquat, mandarin, mulberry, nectarine, olive, passionfruit, pear, plum and walnut. A functional home ready to be lived in, this is certainly an exciting and worthwhile project for the handy person or restoration enthusiast. With plenty of room to extend, build more shedding or subdivide (STCA), the potential is limited only by your imagination.
