A Historical Masterpiece

Step back in time and experience the grandeur of Wardell's House, also known lovingly as Newstead, a heritage property built around the 1860s and steeped in rich history.

Entering through the grand timber-panelled hallway, you are immediately met with a sense of timeless elegance. The formal living room, a masterpiece of craftsmanship, features exquisite wood panelling and a bay window that invites natural light to enhance the room's ambiance. Decorative plaster ceilings, native timber detailing, and original leadlight windows further enrich the home's character, offering a glimpse into its storied past.

The beautifully updated kitchen combines heritage elegance with modern functionality, featuring stainless steel countertops, subway tiling, and leadlight windows.

Surrounded by magnificent trees and established gardens, this property offers unparalleled privacy and serenity. The conservatory provides a tranquil space to relax while taking in views of the lush grounds, which are a haven of peace. Beyond the home, a character-filled barn offers versatility as a creative studio, games room, or additional storage, further enhancing the charm and functionality of the property. There is also a large workshop and an external office should you wish to run your business from home.
