Piccione House a modernised period classic
Piccione House has story to tell. Rich in history and about a century in the making, the original baltic pine cottage has all the warmth and character you would expect from a home of this era. Lovingly restored and then extensively extended, the home is now the perfect blend of period appeal and modern comforts.
Honouring the integrity of the property, theres barely a corner of this home that hasnt been respectfully renovated. All three bedrooms are generous in size with lofty ceiling heights, two of which enjoy French door access to a north facing redgum deck. Oversized and versatile, the laundry-come-mudroom is great for big families whilst the central bathroom (with claw bath and stunning antique window) adds comfort and appeal.
Doubling the home, a quality extension has created a huge open plan living space. Brightened by clerestory windows, the king size lounge centres around a woodfire heater whilst the kitchen features walk-in pantry, electric oven with gas cooktop and teppanyaki plate, Bosch dishwasher, and floating bench.
Fully landscaped, the property (approx. 1303m2) is a pleasant mix of lawn and flora - including peonies, camelias, natives, and a grand Oak tree. A bay leaf and lemon espalier embrace the large garage/workshop, with room for five vehicles in the adjacent carport. On town water/gas, the property also includes four water tanks, ducted and zoned gas heating, refrigerated cooling, and solar hot water.
Restorations of this quality are few and far between. Historical, elegant, and tastefully updated, Piccione House offers the best of both worlds and exceptional value.
