Contact Agent

MasterSell is proud to present “Croydon”, one of the finest homes in Gundagai. This significant Federation-style home on a 1320m2 block was previously Gundagai’s maternity hospital from the turn of the century until the 1940s & prior to the Gundagai District Hospital taking over this role... For many years, Nurse Annie Murray waded through creeks & cycled for miles over hills and in all kinds of weather to deliver around 6,000 babies. The highly respected midwife may have established this private maternity hospital - one of the first in Australia & Nurse Murray Street in Gundagai was named in her honour.

- There is plenty of street appeal with slate retaining walls, a blossoming garden, an imposing residence with local double multi-coloured brickwork, the original double-hung windows & a generous ¾ wraparound deck
- A splendid leadlight stained glass front door & fanlight provide entry to a grand entrance hall with harlequin black-and-white floor tiling, decorative arch, high skirting boards & soaring timber-lined ceiling
- The living room is the vibrant family hub, featuring a fireplace flanked on both sides with built in cupboards & book shelves. It is a bright & happy space with a skylight & north-facing windows that flow out to a rear stone-paved patio with BBQ & breathtaking views over the rear garden & hills beyond
- The spacious formal dining room with lead-lighting & fireplace is ideal for entertaining, especially since it opens out onto the deck
- A cosy family room enjoys a third fireplace & is perfect for chats & hobbies
- Country kitchen in floor-to-ceiling timber, with pantry, breakfast bar, windows to three sides, double sink & handy direct doorway access to the rear patio
- All four carpeted bedrooms are spacious with paneled built-in robes & high timber-lined ceilings
- The sunroom/study is wonderfully bright with east & north-facing windows. With a built-in cupboard & direct access to outside, it would also be ideal for a home business
- There are two attractive full bathrooms, one with a shower & the other with a combined spa-bath & shower. There is also a third toilet in the laundry
- An immaculate paved driveway (lined with neatly-trimmed hedge & trees) leads to a three-bay carport, built in keeping with the main house design (this could easily be converted to a lock-up garage with built-in storage)
