Breathe in. Breathe out. Relax. You’ve arrived at a luxury retreat with a country welcome, surrounded by the best that Bardon has to offer; schools, parkland, bike trails, gyms, shops, and the neighbourhood cafe on Lewin Street.
Peacefully positioned overlooking Ithaca Creek and nestled on a generous 835m2 parcel, this classic character residence reveals a rich history in an idyllic setting.

Meticulously restored to simultaneously enhance its original character and offer the best of contemporary living, the home provides enhanced functionality, generous proportions throughout and verdant leafy panoramas from the wraparound verandahs.
