164 Mann Street

"Esrom" at 164 Mann Street is one of Armidale's truly distinguished residences, a grand, beautifully renovated home set on an exceptional north-facing holding of approximately three quarters of an acre. Originally constructed in the 1890s for Mr G.F. Morse, this remarkable home carries both architectural and local significance. Built from the region's iconic Armidale blue brick, the residence stands as a lasting testament to craftsmanship, scale and enduring design. Over time, "Esrom" has held an important place in the town's story, including its later association with student residences connected to Earle Page College. Today, it has been thoughtfully renewed to honour its past while offering the comfort and flexibility required for modern family living. A sweeping circular driveway, framed by mature trees and expansive grounds, creates a striking sense of arrival to the wraparound verandah.Inside, the proportions are nothing short of impressive. A grand central hallway anchors the home, leading to a series of beautifully scaled rooms, each filled with natural light and original character. Formal living and sitting rooms offer refined spaces to entertain, while the dining room, family room and sunroom provide versatility for everyday living. At the heart of the home, a substantial kitchen with island bench connects seamlessly to the indoor and outdoor living zones, reinforcing the home's balance of tradition and practicality. Accommodation comprises five generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an expansive primary suite with ensuite and direct outdoor access. The remaining bedrooms are equally well-proportioned, offering flexibility for families, guests or work-from-home living. Outdoors, a large alfresco entertaining area extends from the home, overlooking sweeping lawns and established gardens, ideal for gatherings. The north-facing aspect ensures natural light throughout the day, enhancing both the home and its grounds. Set on a significant 3054 sqm, the scale of the land offers not only immediate lifestyle appeal but also exciting potential. There is clear opportunity to further enhance, extend or personalise the property over time, making this both a remarkable home for today and a long-term investment in one of Armidale's most tightly held pockets. Positioned within close proximity to the town centre, schools and amenities, "Esrom" is truly a landmark residence that delivers the rare combination of convenience, history, land and presence.
