Step Into Timeless Elegance
Once in a while a property that truly showcases what ‘hills living’ is all about comes to the market. This simply stunning beauty ticks all of these must have boxes plus many more. Take in the tranquil valley views from the expansive rear deck area or enjoy the warm sun filtering in through the beautiful original bay windows. Cook up a feast in the stunning chefs kitchen or enjoy the lush back lawn area with a game of cricket. This house has been carefully curated to encompass all of these stunning aspects whilst still allowing the home to be functional and private.
Nestled in a picturesque setting, this sprawling 1930s Boya beauty masterfully combines the charm of the past with contemporary family living. As one of the original properties in Boya, it showcases thoughtful renovations that preserve its vintage allure while expanding the home’s functionality. The property's street facade is modest, but as you journey down the gravel driveway, it opens to reveal a stunning residence, offering a seamless blend of old-world charm and modern comfort.
Once you are inside, you immediately notice the attention to detail in preserving original features like the intricate ceiling roses, glowing timber flooring and the remarkable original windows, all of which retain the home’s historical elegance. At the heart of the house lies the original fireplace—a breathtaking focal point, even though it’s no longer functional, this masterpiece grounds the space with a touch of timeless sophistication.
Modern upgrades have been designed with a respect for the home's heritage, including a state-of-the-art chef's kitchen. Fully equipped with high-end appliances and ample storage, it’s a dream for any culinary enthusiast. Complementing this are two tastefully renovated bathrooms, each boasting contemporary finishes that are as practical as they are timeless. Stepping out from the living space, a 110m2 deck beckons, where you can bask in the beauty of the natural landscape and savour the picturesque views stretching over the lush back garden to a seasonal creek and the bush outlook beyond the property boundary.
Outside, the grounds continue to impress with a fully enclosed vegetable garden featuring raised beds, a spacious chicken coop, a double carport plus a semi enclosed workshop and additional storage area. There is also abundant storage in the home's undercroft area. With lights and water added to this space, it could be transformed into a temperature controlled cellar for the wine enthusiasts or an area to store bulkier items out of the way.
This stunning home, rich with history yet adapted for todays lifestyle, is a true Boya gem. Every corner reveals a touch of character and modern grace, making it a must-see for those who appreciate quality, beauty and space.
