Renovated and extended over the past decade, this weatherboard family home showcases the optimal balance between exquisite contemporary design, modern conveniences and original heritage charm.

Set on a large corner allotment of 808 square metres (approx.), there's plenty of space for all the extras: a gas-heated swim-spa, a large deck for indoor/outdoor entertaining, expansive lawns and a separate self-contained bungalow.

Ideally situated in the heart of town, it's a pleasant walk to local primary schools, Russell Clark Reserve, Pea Soup Beach, the Moyne River, or the main street boutiques and cafes.

Featuring original pressed tin walls and ceilings, stunning polished pine floorboards, ornate mantelpieces and characterful stained glass windows, this elegant period home provides exceptional accommodation and a mix of formal and informal living spaces across two levels.

Adorned with painted pressed tin, the hallway has the wow factor when you enter this unique Federation home. Downstairs, a formal lounge, formal dining, study/bedroom and master suite branch off the hall, which leads to the expansive open-plan living space.

Merging seamlessly with the vast decked area, the bright combined modern dining/living/kitchen (with Bosch appliances and Carrara marble benchtops) is the heart of the home.

Upstairs, three further bedrooms share a bathroom with bath.
