A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY - Auction This Saturday 27th November
This is it, this is your opportunity to purchase this landmark home set on sprawling grounds overlooking the Georges River and foreshore bushland. This classic house was once the show-piece of Lugarno and is a perfect example of the style and decor from the swinging 60’s. Built to make the most of the lovely outlook over the river and the beautiful front gardens, this house is bathed in natural light. The main living room is very spacious and features some classic ’60’s built-in timber furnishings, while also opening out to the large covered patio. The formal dining room is quite spacious and features polished floorboards and a servery straight into the well proportioned kitchen.
Located away from main entertaining areas at the other end of the house, are the three bedrooms. Each bedroom is very roomy and has large picture windows to take in the view, so waking up in any of these bedrooms will give you a great start to any day.
Downstairs there is a large cellar that is currently stocked with dozens of bottles of wine that will be included with the purchase of the house. Adjacent to the cellar and laundry is the rumpus room. This room was once known as the hunting room and was decorated in the style of the day, so it is easy to imagine a room filled with cigars and whiskey, as men told tall tales of their exploits a la Ernest Hemingway.
Leaving the rumpus room, you come straight out to the huge, level, rear yard that features landscaped gardens and an in-ground pool. The yard is bordered by an original low fence that blends in perfectly with the adjoining foreshore reserve. In keeping with the original 1960’s decor, there is an outdoor pool house called the bunker that features a change room, shower and a toilet, so that people using the pool are well catered for.
So if you are looking for a large, almost level house that has wonderful bush & water views and is built on a huge block of land located at the end of a very peaceful cul-de-sac, then this could be for you.
