Timeless Character, Beautifully Restored

Step inside this beautifully updated 1910’s villa and experience the perfect blend of old-world elegance and modern-day comfort. Proudly positioned in the heart of beautiful Thames, this grand old lady has been lovingly preserved and thoughtfully modernised, with no expense spared in bringing her into the 21st century.

From the moment you enter, the character is undeniable. Rich timber floorboards, original stained-glass windows, ornate fireplaces and impressive high-stud ceilings showcase the craftsmanship of a bygone era. A wide central hallway forms the heart of the home, connecting the generously proportioned rooms and adding to the sense of grandeur.

The separate formal lounge is both elegant and inviting, with French doors opening onto the front Verandah, which wraps around to the entrance. At the heart of the home, the bespoke native-timber kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining area, with French doors opening to the patio — perfect for entertaining, family gatherings and enjoying easy indoor-outdoor living.

The kitchen beautifully combines heritage features with modern functionality. The original coal range remains in working order, while a large Falcon cooker with gas hob, electric oven and trivet takes centre stage. The original cast-iron sink has been lovingly re-enamelled, and a built-in hutch provides plenty of space to display crockery and glassware.

Three generous bedrooms provide plenty of accommodation, including a superb master suite with its own beautifully appointed ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. French doors open from the master bedroom onto a private, covered, north-facing deck — the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee in the sunshine.

The family bathroom has been exquisitely renovated and restyled in 2026, featuring a modern slipper bath, separate shower, vanity and toilet. A separate laundry is conveniently positioned off the kitchen and dining area.

For added flexibility, the sleepout/studio is accessed from the patio and offers an ideal space for guests, hobbies, a home office or creative pursuits.

Comfort has been well considered too, with an HRV system, two heat pumps and underfloor heating in the kitchen and dining area ensuring year-round warmth. An attic ladder provides easy access to a substantial 105sqm of attic flooring, creating an abundance of tucked-away storage.

Outside, there is plenty of room for vehicles, with a double garage, double carport and additional space for the camper or boat.

The gardens are a true delight — beautifully maintained, private and wonderfully established. A gate and steps lead to a second level where you'll discover productive vegetable gardens and a charming BBQ area or playhouse, creating another lovely space for children, entertaining or simply enjoying the outdoors.

This is a home that has been cherished. The current vendors have lovingly cared for and enhanced every part of this beautiful property, but the time has come for them to downsize. Now, it's ready for its next chapter — and for another family to create many wonderful memories of their own.
