Property Summary

Trehaine is a wonderful example of a turn-of-the-century 'arts and crafts' era home. 'Trehaine' is named after the 'T' in (Edward) Christmas, the name of the local joiner whose trademark craftsmanship can be seen in the neighbouring properties that are named after each letter from his wife Laura's name and then his own. The buildings include his personal trademark elements and due to their local distinction, the houses on Perry Vale now form part of the Christmas Conservation Area in Forest Hill.


Externally, the property features the beautiful deep red clay brickwork and traditional roughcast rendered first floor with clay tiled roof. The original timber sash windows and detailed canopy over the front door stand out as exquisite examples of their time. There is off-street parking for 1 vehicle with potential for the hardstanding to be increased to accomodate further vehicles if required. The rear garden can be accessed via the side passage. The rear garden extends approximately 60' from the back of the property.


Internally, the ground floor comprises; a welcoming entrance hall with beautifully maintained original floor tiles. The wooden decorative elements such as the skirting boards, banister, spindles and architraves are part of the charm of a 'Christmas house' and have been painstakingly hand-restored to the original wood. There are 2 reception rooms that feature the original fireplaces and overmantels. Throughout the rest of the house, the creative flare of Christmas can be seen in its unspoiled glory.


Having been lovingly maintained over the years by the same family who have occupied the house since the 70s, the property offers an opportunity for development.
