"Baker House"=The Fabulous Baker Abode

There was once a butcher named Baker. At the turn of the century, at the height of his success, he built a home that exemplified the fruits of his good fortune. And thus Baker House was born - opulence personified.

A jewel in the crown of the heritage precinct, this exquisite and sprawling home is a rich tapestry of Victorian Federation charm and sensational lifestyle additions. Lovingly maintained, grand period arches, high elaborate ceilings, polished boards and ornate fireplaces throughout tell tales of yesteryear.
Expertly seamless renovations have kept the original integrity of the home, while providing a host of lifestyle features to complement modern living.

The expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area is a haven for the entertainer. Blending American cherry wood and the classic French "Winckelmans" tessellated tile pattern, it is also literally laden with gourmet appliances including an antique-style brass Ilve stove, with two rotisserie ovens, four gas burners, grill and long fish burner - a veritable treasure trove for the discerning home chef.

Stand out features throughout include the original staircase from the old Majestic Hotel in Applecross which makes a grand statement as it sweeps you up to a grand parlour on the second floor. Simply beautiful and superbly crafted, it is reminiscent of the days of old, when the men retired to smoke and the women played cards. Huge, wooden by-folding doors open out to an expansive balcony and sweeping views to the ocean. With a massive Italian chandelier taking pride of place amidst an expansive, ornate ceiling rose, it is fit for a king.

Outside the wonders of the enchanting garden await you. A myriad twists and turns take you through lush greenery, while the trickling sound of running water from a Japanese style pond and Victorian crypt creates a tranquil ambiance. Together with wrought iron gates, stone statues, high limestone walls and double love seats dotted about, this is a wonderland of beauty offering superb intimacy to whittle the time away.

Step through a grand Egyptian gate to the original stable building. Transformed into a two storey coach house it has a rustic charm created by superb use of wood and brass. Featuring a kitchen, bathroom, dining and living area on the first floor, a huge bedroom and a second living area are located on the second. Step out onto the private balcony and take in the sweeping views out to the ocean as you look over the bewitching gardens.

A home with this much detail really must be viewed to be truly appreciated. A true slice of the days of ceremony and grandeur, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and one that will continue to create history for those lucky enough to call it home.

All the rear gardens are enclosed in high brick wall fences and both buildings have monitored alarm system.
