Description

This charming two bedroom home made from hand made Cement block and mud brick is a good example of maintaining grand aspects with modern convenience.
Inside:
The rooms are large with 11 foot ceilings, chandeliers and fireplaces. An ensuite shower and walk in robe has been built for bedroom one and a toilet, equipped with a claw foot bath, services the house.
There are polished hardwood floors throughout and substantial vintage lead light bay windows in both bedrooms and lounge.
The home is kept warm in winter and cool in summer with a large ducted system throughout.
The kitchen has recently been modernised with quality cupboards and benches and a large oven and hot plates have been built into the fireplace.
The enclosed back and side verandahs have been incorporated to include a utility area for washing machine, a pantry area and a sewing room that can also be used as a formal dining area.
Stairs in the main hallway lead up to the second story where there is a study or storage room plus easy access to the internal roof area.

Outside:
Verandahs wrap around the front and side of the house providing a shady spot to watch the numerous parrots, rosellas, magpies and more play and feed in the shady native garden on the side.
The house sits on a little over 3,000 square metres on three titles with direct access to the rear lane.
Directly back from the house is a large Atco building measuring approximately 13m x 3m that is open to a number of uses.
There are also three sheds on the property as well as an open fronted “implement shed” (10m x 7m) which could easily house both a caravan and a boat. The sheds consist of:
A workshop with lights, power and concrete floor (7m x 10m) equipped with benches, cupboards and storage shelves;
A Lawn Mower/Storage shed with concrete floor (4m x 7m):
A near new Gardening/Storage shed with wooden floor (7m x 3m)

There are two carports over the driveway with the one at the rear being a high roofed carport capable of covering vehicles over 3m high. This verandah measures around 6m x 13m. Three gates access the back from the laneway with one leading to the back yard, one leading to the sheds and implement shed and one for the driveway allowing vehicles to drive through.
Numerous water tanks are on the property including a 9,000 litre tank with pump connected to a tap and front lawn watering system.

The house has recently been inspected and declared termite free and a Sentricon barrier system is installed and monitored.

Location
The home looks out towards the Brim Golf Club and is close to the Brim Silos (the first of the Silo Art Trail). It is located just a few minutes walk from the Brim Bowling Club, General Store, Ag Store, Hardware, Brim Recreation Reserve and the Brim Hotel. It is also just a short drive (or cycle) to Reddas Park on the river where the New Years Fireworks and Regatta are held.
