Make this Your Devonport Estate (1252 sqm site)

It is extremely rare that sites of this size (1252sqm) are found still intact so close to the heart of Devonport village, never mind sites with such a jewel of a villa perfectly positioned to peer over its sunny gardens of incredible proportions, with plenty of space to pop in a pool and still have sweeping lawns for the kids to run wild; a true Devonport estate awaits you.

For the story of this home, watch the VIDEO now, and try the 3D tour.

The traditional villa exhibits the craftsmanship of the era with charming and quirky additions testament to the families who have grown within this home's comfortable expanse. It is in largely original condition and those with a passion for the architectural hallmarks of the period will be inspired by the original features that abound, including grand fireplaces, big bay windows, timber floors, towering ornate ceilings, and the beautiful filigree that adorns the wrap around veranda.

The current layout sees five bedrooms located on the main entry level off the sweeping circular driveway. A large brick fireplace sits at the heart of the living areas, while the kitchen/dining steps out onto the sunny north-west facing deck, with views out towards the City. The ground floor opens onto the vast back lawns offering the perfect rumpus or additional accommodation, but you might be tempted to make much more of this area with the potential for a pool and further landscaping accessed from here.

Devonport's cafes, bars and boutiques are just a three-minute walk away for morning coffee, shopping, drinks and dinner, and the ferry makes for a pleasant commute to the city for work and play. Such large sites so close to the village are nearly impossible to find and this property presents infinite potential. Enjoy now, restore or transform; this is your chance to create your very own Devonport estate.
