"Swayfield" c.1885

5 2

Built circa 1885 by renowned builder Edward Bishop for his beloved daughter, this beautiful Victorian home known as "Swayfield" has been renovated and extended to an exquisite standard, comprising five bedrooms and a study with two generous living areas. The front of the home is typically Victorian, boasting soaring ceilings with decorative cornices and ceiling roses, plus original Baltic Pine flooring. Two spacious bedrooms and a study occupy the front of the home, serviced by a character bathroom with a cast iron claw-foot bath and separate shower, culminating in a classic formal lounge with an open fireplace and French doors. The new build at the rear of the home begins with a brilliantly-appointed kitchen with Bosch cooking appliances, granite benches and a Smeg dishwasher, surrounded by a vast living and dining area with Red Gum floors. Bi-fold doors reveal the covered alfresco deck and allow an effortless transition between indoor and outdoor living: the north-facing oasis-like backyard includes an entertaining gazebo. Perfect for parents, a separate children's wing features 3 carpeted bedrooms and another well-appointed bathroom.
