Home of the Week
AN ARTIST'S CREATION
Every now and then we are afforded the privilege of working with a property that is so unique and inspired it defies words.
Created and evolved over many decades, this home has been a place of inspiration and influence behind renowned sculptor and artist, the late Guy Ngan and his wife Jean.
Guy came across the land in the 1940’s during the war while he was visiting his Captain in the Home Guard living next door. Guy and Jean started building on the land in 1958, a year before they married and added extensions over the years to accommodate their family and new work spaces.
This home has been both a family sanctuary and incredible artist’s hub for 60 years, and now it is time for the new owner to move in and furnish this unique home with their own artistic flair.
Spread out over 3 levels providing countless possibilities there are spaces galore, including;
Level 1; Main entranceway, dining, living, kitchen, laundry, walk in pantry, conservatory/indoor garden, bathroom, gallery.
Level 2; Landing, attic storage, 3x bedrooms, lobby with a shower room, vanity unit and separate w/c, darkroom.
Level 3; Studio, workshop, mezzanine floor with gantry overlooking the studio and 2 office spaces.
The mixture of interior linings and beautiful tawa ceilings add to the home’s uniqueness.
Outside you will find 2x carports, garage, glasshouse and another large workshop.
There are ample garden spaces waiting for another green thumb, and gorgeous little outdoor garden nooks, including a fish pond to sit quietly and soak in the tranquillity.
All this set on nearly an acre of land in a lovely street surrounded by native bush, trees and birdlife.
So much more than just a house, this property is SPECIAL!
