Restoring a turn-of-the-century Mt Lawley home to its former glory has been a labour of love for the current owner of 45 Raglan Road. However, having achieved so much, he's ready to pass on the renovation baton of this 364sqm Federation property. Today, the home's front façade is perfection, with its new front wall, landscaped courtyard and original plum tree, retained from generations past. The north-facing front verandah has been meticulously renovated and extended, with a new, higher roof. Now, there's no better spot to sit and enjoy the morning sun with your first coffee of the day. One of three identical houses on Raglan Road, this property was rendered at some point in the last century. The current owner, determined to restore the home to its former glory, removed the render, replaced the window frames, windowsills and front door, and had the brickwork tuckpointed. Inside, the hard work has continued. All ceilings, architraves, door frames, fireplaces and light fittings have been replaced and restored. The master bedroom has been knocked through and extended to now include a walk-through robe and superb, ultra-modern ensuite. The flooring of the original home has been taken up, levelled and made perfect, and is now ready for new timber to be laid. The original Federation home leads into two lean-tos – one of which is structurally sound, comprising a second bathroom and kitchen, while the second is ripe for removal. Whatever your ideas, the new rear part of the home will almost certainly embrace the large backyard. Endless days will be spent here, entertaining, relaxing and making memories with family and friends. This is a story-filled home ready for its next chapter. Will you be the one to turn the page of this magnificent Mt Lawley masterpiece?
