"The Blue House"
Share This Property
Built in 1896, 'the Blue House' on Stockley Road originally encompassed all of the surrounding properties, with orchards and veggie gardens providing for the self-sufficient homestead. For some time, the property boarded students attending the nearby Bunbury High School. The wrap-around verandahs were enclosed and contained beds, supplying accommodation for about 17 students!
Now open to the fresh sea breezes flowing from the nearby Hungry Hollow beach, the verandahs provide a lovely shady place to relax and watch over the neighbourhood from the house's elevated position. Much of the original features of the house remain, lovingly restored by its previous owner. Wide jarrah floor boards, ceiling roses, coloured-glass panelled door, fireplaces and the old Metters kitchen stove maintain the romance of its history, comfortably blended with modern conversions.
Don't miss out on this beautiful character home.
