Timeless Charm on 2.4 Acres (Approx.)

This beautiful Victorian weatherboard home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lara's past. Dating back to the 1860s and originally part of a working dairy farm, the property sits on approximately 2.4 acres, combining the charm of a bygone era with the comforts of modern-day living.

From the moment you step inside, there's a genuine sense of warmth and history. Soaring ceilings, beautiful Tasmanian oak timber floors and original period features showcase the home's heritage, while thoughtful modern updates ensure comfortable living for today's families.

The home comprises four generously sized bedrooms, all complete with ceiling fans, while the well-appointed kitchen features a freestanding stainless steel gas cooker, double dishwasher drawers and plenty of functionality for everyday living.

The spacious, light-filled living area provides a welcoming place for the family to come together, with electric ducted heating.

Outside is where this property really comes into its own. With approximately 2.4 acres to enjoy, there's room to spread out, entertain and embrace a more relaxed lifestyle without sacrificing the convenience of being right in the heart of Lara.

An in-ground heated swimming pool and spa provide the perfect setting for summer afternoons with family and friends, while a separate rumpus or games room offers additional space for the kids, hobbies or entertaining. Three additional sheds provide excellent storage options, ideal for those needing room for vehicles, equipment or simply the flexibility that comes with a larger property.

What makes this property particularly special is its location. While you'll enjoy the space and privacy of acreage living, you're still within walking distance of Lara Train Station, local schools, shopping facilities and Lara's beautiful walking tracks.

Whether you're looking for a family home with room to grow, a lifestyle property with space to enjoy, or simply something with a little more history and personality, this is a property that offers something genuinely different.

Homes with this much history, character and land, all within walking distance of Lara's everyday conveniences, don't come along often.

A wonderful opportunity to enjoy the best of country-style living while keeping the city, coast and everything in between within easy reach.
