Befitting its grand address, this Circa 1900s residence offers a royal lifestyle at a character-filled property where nothing but the finest decor and ambience will appease upmarket buyers.
Positioned behind a quaint picket fence and formal hedging, on a serenely landscaped block, awaits Mericourt L'Abbe, which is named after a commune in northern France.
The home is nestled on one of Lorn's most highly sought, Jacaranda-lined streets and is just a short walk to the village shops and cafes, along with Maitland CBD, which is just across the Hunter River.
