Made to last and constructed of double brick, this home is as solid as the day it was built. This grand residence sits proudly in its lovely, elevated position overlooking the town of Yass and just one block from the main street. A dignified and gracious home, rich in character, it retains many of its original and period features, from the wide central hallway highlighted by ornate archways, polished timber floors, ornate ceilings, wide skirting boards, picture rails and 5 fireplaces! The huge, enclosed verandah also has distant views over Yass and is a fabulous spot for some winter warmth, is an ideal rumpus or billiard room or extra space for those family gatherings. The stately formal living (front sitting room) includes a fireplace, as does the large formal dining room; both these rooms also access the verandah. An absolutely stunning new kitchen flows seamlessly into a sunny casual living room, this opens onto and looks out to the private rear garden offering a leafy and tranquil outdoor space to relax and entertain. 4 substantially sized bedrooms (master with ensuite, some with fireplaces) plus a large study/home office. Stylishly renovated bathrooms and 3 toilets. A large carport just off the family room allows for under cover access into the house. A single lockup garage at the rear of property features back lane access to the garage and the rear garden through double gates. This is a substantial and exceptional family home with echoes of the past that will continue long into the next generation. Inspections are very highly recommended!
