HISTORY BECKONS STEEPED in history, Kinross is surely Berwick’s most desired property. The grand home sits on a substantial 2/3 acre block in the heart of Palmerston Street, Berwick. On offer is a Victorian-style brick home set amid magnificent Golden Oak and Norfolk pine trees. Elegance and class are words that instantly come to mind. Believed to have been built for the Sweeneys, a pioneer district family in the 1860s, and also used as a holiday retreat for nuns, this property is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Berwick’s history. Step into a home full of character and charm where old world splendour meets a lovingly restored family haven comprising 4 bedrooms plus home office, 3 bathrooms and two grand living spaces. With many original features, part of the home is heritage protected, however the
entire residence has been impressively renovated and extended over the years. The original cellar of the home is still in use. Highlights of the property are the tall ceilings, Blackbutt hardwood flooring, open fireplaces in most rooms and the original cellar, which is still in use.
The property is complemented by zoned ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, automated window furnishings, CCTV, abundant storage and remote-control tripleplus garage. Providing a perfect blend of indoor-outdoor space, this first-class home has an external pool-house with built-in BBQ where many a
lazy Sunday afternoon is bound to be spent. Both public and private schools and a vast array of hospitals and universities are at your fingertips. Let the tradition of quality and elegance continue as Kinross is now ready for a family to celebrate this superb central Berwick lifestyle. ●
