Tighes Hill 70 Henry Street
A Masterclass in the Renovation of a Period Home
Standing out on the corner of William Street, this picture-perfect period prize sports the results of a spectacular front to back renovation. Once the display home for the Tighes Hill subdivision, this early 1900s house has been totally transformed for modern family living. Beautiful pressed metal ceilings, dado boards and a decorative hallway arch have been sympathetically restored and pay homage to the property's Victorian roots. A contemporary new island kitchen with a butler's pantry, a stunning family bathroom plus a second one in the laundry, and the addition of ducted air-conditioning are just some of the fabulous new features that will have you falling in love. This four-bedroom home is exceptionally spacious with a large living room and separate family room. A Merbau deck with Beefeater barbecue and wall-mounted TV as well as a classic wrap-around verandah and a secure backyard add alfresco enjoyment. Topped by a fantastic lifestyle position, it's an easy stroll to popular Tighes Hill Public school, Birdy's and Praise Joe cafés and Islington Park with Beaumont Street and Hamilton Station just a few minutes from here.
