THE restoration work is complete and the history is deep – Raine and Horne Moree’s featured property this week is an inspiration for all aspiring home renovators.
No.75 Edward Street in west Moree, a former NSW Railways’ residence, is steeped in history.
And that history has been brought back to life with a complete renovation in recent times.
Whether it’s the picket fence with a modern take and freshly-planted agapanthus upon entry, or the warm, welcoming main entrance, potential buyers will be mesmerised by the detail and work that has gone into the restoration of this three-bedroom home.
Once used as a railway residence when trains chugged across all corners of north-western New South Wales many years ago, the home sits on a 506 square-metre parcel of land in a much-sought-after, flood-free area of west Moree.
The compact block has been landscaped front and back, and features new fencing sprinkled with pear trees and murraya hedging.
A new, covered deck overlooking the backyard seamlessly connects with the main residence, and a carport can be accessed via the rear lane right of way (on Title).
The home features new Colorbond roofing, including a new bull nose front verandah, and has been re-wired and re-plumbed.
New low maintenance aluminium windows have been fitted – except across the front – and a new hot water system installed.
The historic home, freshly-painted a soft grey, is a leisurely stroll to the Moree CBD, supermarkets and schools, with a game of golf just around the corner.
Raine and Horne Moree selling agent Kelly Atkins said No.75 Edward Street was Hamptons-inspired, meets country-charm.
“The restoration of this home is truly inspiring, with so many new, low-maintenance features to admire,” Kelly said.
“The wide hallway with timber panelling and three-metre ceilings warmly greet you, and gives a glimpse into the home’s history.”
The open-plan living has new tallowood hardwood flooring, finished with a French polish, with the custom kitchen featuring new appliances, dishwasher, stone benchtops and ample cupboards and storage.
The home comprises three fully-carpeted bedrooms, all with new customised built-in wardrobes and ceiling fans.
“There are also two new split-system air-conditioners to keep temperatures perfect throughout the year,” Kelly said.
Two bathrooms complete the home, with the main bathroom featuring a built-in bathtub, separate shower, and 900mm vanity with stone benchtop.
Kelly encourages potential buyers to arrange an inspection.
“The complete renovation of this home is remarkable – there is literally nothing left to do, except move in,” she said.
