The villa has three distinct gables which is unusual, even for its era.
The locals called it the ‘blue tarpaulin house’ for decades; now the 110-year-old villa has been restored to its former glory – and some.

Now the three-bedroom, three-bathroom, plus studio house on 1106 square metres is for sale by deadline of March 18, having been exhaustively renovated by owners Chessa Stevens and Rob Tilbrook.
