A rare find, this charming Homestead set on a sprawling 2.3Ha of residential zoned land within the town boundary is a hidden treasure. The tree lined driveway leads to the expansive 1870's crafted Oamaru Stone home, meticulously preserved with ornate ceilings and fireplaces, yet subtly updated for comfortable modern day living. The kitchen has modern appliances; a deep butlers sink and servery through to the separate dining room where a Wagner wood- burner stove heats the water and runs the radiator. French doors section off the lounge which has the ambience of an open fire, a sunroom at the front of the home offers a peaceful retreat to enjoy your morning coffee while the formal lounge room has been commandeered as a spacious master bedroom. There are a further three double bedrooms and a 4th slightly smaller that is currently a designated office. The family bathroom has spa bath and shower with separate toilet; for the convenience of family and guests there is a second toilet and shower off the garage. A DVS, heating in the hallway walls, insulation, log-burner and open fire keep the home comfortable year-round while solar panels and invertor system ensure the power bills stay on track. The double garage has an attached man-cave with sauna, while the laundry and craft room are off the covered patio and afternoon entertaining area. The grounds are parklike with entertaining and bbq areas and tennis court, great for family fun, large vegetable garden with tunnel house, and an array of fruit and ornamental trees and shrubs. The paddocks play host to a few ewes and their lambs with a section cornered off for the hens.
