“Rosebank” A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

In today’s real estate market, living in town usually means a home on a compact block as urban growth and infill development put pressure on every square foot of land.

So, it’s a rare opportunity when a large homestead style home on over half an acre comes to market in a prestigious part of old Geelong.

Sitting proudly on a double north-facing 2,119sqm block, the 1890s homestead of “Rosebank” at 384-386 Autumn Street, Herne Hill is a magnificent example of old perfectly combining with new.

Brought to market by the team at Buxton Newtown, the home has been exceptionally renovated and extended in 2004 by the present owners.

The striking yet understated double brick homestead opens to a modern, light filled family living zone.

Buxton Newtown director Tom Butters said the land, street appeal, history, and overall feel, make this the most spectacular home in Herne Hill.

“From the moment you approach the property you can tell you are about to enter something amazing.

“ThE internal layout is just superb, no matter what size your family is.

“And with the largest back yard in the street, you can feel at home in your own spacious oasis.”

The home consists of five good sized bedrooms, a large office and two generous bathrooms. The master bedroom with a double walk-in robes, ensuite and a beautiful floor to ceiling window overlooking the picturesque backyard.

Designed with entertaining in mind, the generous kitchen, living and dining areas are bathed in natural light from the expansive north-facing windows that take in the private backyard oasis. The open plan kitchen features a generous walk-in pantry, Caesarstone benches, gas cooktop and is all framed by the stunning vaulted ceilings with highlight windows.

Highly regarded as the most beautiful home in the suburb, this home has been loved and enjoyed by the present family and is ready for the next family to do the same.

The property features 22,000 litres of water storage, in-slab electric heating, natural gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, double carport, cellar, treehouse, double driveway with garage from second entrance, workshop/extra room and plenty of off-street parking.

Conveniently located close to everything Geelong has to offer, this truly is a once-in-a-lifetime real estate opportunity.
