Kenton Inn c1855

Offers Close Tue, 2nd May - 2pm (usp) Also known as The Top Pub, the Kenton Inn ceased trading in the 1940's after the hotel in the main street acquired it to gain a monopoly over the watering holes in the township. Lovingly maintained it now serves as a stunning home and a fine example of the architecture of the era. Set on a canvas of captivating established "garden rooms", it is completed with inground pool, and generous garaging. This really is your ultimate escape to the country. What we love about this property: • Accessed via slip lane and set back from the corner of Victoria and McLaren Streets, the character laden home invokes a sense of history. Bearing witness to untold stories over generations, the proximity of a bygone era is inescapable. • Sitting with a proud elevation, it takes in views over the superb rolling countryside. Stand on the front verandah and in a moment of stillness, you can almost hear the horse and carts pulling up and the havering from workers as the kegs are lowered off the sidewalk and into the impressive cellar down below • Inviting period features of high ceilings, leadlight details, large sash window and polished floorboards have all been retained • Brilliantly adapted for family living, the floorplan ensures significant separation from the Master and bedrooms 2 and 3 • Large master suite has upgraded walk-through wardrobes and luxurious ensuite with double shower • Well-appointed and updated kitchen, complete with stone bench tops, Miele appliances and pot belly for the cooler months • Large dining room with cellar access.
