These are just some of the words visitors to "Greenway" have used to describe this incredible home. She is indeed, a statement in elegance and style.

No expense has been spared in her restoration and the detail must be seen to be truly appreciated. The original arched windows on the deck have been rebuilt, the original front door restored and the original windows remain in situ enhanced by the installation of Viridian Comfort Plus glass. Where original hand cut weatherboards have not been able to be preserved, the new boards have been secured with original Rose Head wrought iron nails, imported from England, just like the original.

When you enter the home, the English Harlequin wallpaper sets the standard which you will come to expect from the rest of the home. Hummingbirds symbolise intelligence, beauty, devotion and love - what an appropriate statement to begin your experience of "Greenway".

Original features have been retained where possible including the ceiling rose in the formal lounge, the chandelier and the incredible staircase which has been stripped, French polished and finished with French Victorian brass stair rods. Original mantles have been stripped and returned to their natural beauty and perhaps the most incredible features are the chimneys and sandstone which have been stripped of plaster and cleaned to reveal the gorgeous stone and convict brickwork.

Contemporary enhancements for comfortable 21st Century living are obvious throughout. The kitchen bench tops are Italian porcelain with shark nose edges and a subtle black shadow line. The Miele dishwasher, Liebherr fridge and freezer are all integrated, as is the bin drawer. The sandstone lintel sits above the new Belling stove in the fireplace and there is a Schweigen silent rangehood with the motor in the chimney.

The MBR ensuite and family bathroom both have underfloor heating and vanity mirrors with demisters and lights. A clever design feature in the family bathroom is the separate toilet within the main bathroom, offering the ability for someone to be in the shower whilst another may use the toilet as both shower and toilet have opaque glass sliding doors for privacy.

The mudroom is the perfect place to drop off gumboots and coats. The original back door has been restored and has a gorgeous new lock. It sits proudly above the sandstone steps at the rear of the home. The front door is also the original which has been restored.

Gorgeous lighting throughout the home blends with perfect synergy; combining original through to new, contemporary selections. Original chandeliers in the entry and the formal lounge, a modern chandelier in the 2nd bedroom, stunning spheres in the dining, kitchen an above the stairs, all perfectly transition from one zone to another.

Two sizeable attic bedrooms feature custom-built wardrobes, designed to be new but with an inflection of old, freestanding pieces. These rooms are extremely generous and both could easily be used as twin bedrooms a bedroom with play area for smaller children, or a bedroom with study desk for older students. Equally, in this day and age of working from home, both rooms with their generous area and interesting ceilings could be used as study or home office spaces.

Outdoors, can you believe the garden beds are even colour co-ordinated? Advanced ornamental trees have been planted among other beautiful shrubs and floral displays. There is an expansive exposed aggregate driveway and a double carport, with roof pitched to compliment the original home. Covered access is offered direct to the home.

This home is unlike anything you will have seen before. It truly is an exceptional renovation. Please contact Michael on 0418 120 771 or Jill on 0412 672 905 to arrange your personal inspection.
