Opportunity awaits to own a piece of history with this stunning Victorian-style home dating back to the 18th century, set in the lush and sought-after Belle Ombre Constantia. The restored old-world charm blends perfectly with stylish features, comfortable living, and architectural excellence.

The spaces within the home are large and airy yet warm and welcoming, with original Oregon pine flooring and French doors leading from the rooms to the wrap-around veranda. There are three reception rooms, excluding the exquisite entrance hall.
