Overflowing with charm, space and serenity, this exceptional property blends timeless appeal with modern comfort in a tranquil rural setting that feels like a private sanctuary.
Framed by manicured gardens, this beautiful residence immediately captivates with its traditional façade and front verandah. Step inside and you’re greeted by polished timber flooring, soaring ceilings, VJ walls, as well as tasteful upgrades to turn this circa 1930′s cottage into the reimagined masterpiece it is today.
The heart of the home is the generous open-plan living and dining area, complete with a cosy wood fireplace and reverse cycle air-conditioning – the perfect space for relaxed family gatherings. Flowing seamlessly from here is the updated country-style kitchen, equipped with upright 6-burner gas cooking, electric oven, dishwasher, expansive bench space and air-conditioning. A unique loft above the kitchen adds a delightful extra living zone ideal as a children’s retreat, reading nook or creative hideaway.
This thoughtfully designed layout includes four large bedrooms, three offering built-in robes. The main bedroom is a true highlight – oversized and airy with reverse cycle air-conditioning, his & her wardrobes, ensuite with shower & toilet and French doors that open onto a private rear verandah overlooking the gardens – an ideal morning coffee escape or parent’s retreat. The charming family bathroom includes a freestanding clawfoot bath, separate shower, generous vanity and abundant built-in storage.
There’s no shortage of versatile space, with an additional separate office/living room that’s ideal for working from home, crafting or guest use. The rear hardwood timber deck extends the living outdoors, while a paved sun-drenched patio with built-in BBQ and fire pit offers year-round entertaining potential.
The grounds are nothing short of extraordinary. You’ll find fruit trees including lime, lemon, mango, mulberry, olive, mandarin and apple; established veggie beds; a dedicated potting shed; and sprawling lawns perfect for kids to run and explore. A 6m x 9m powered shed, an adjoining carport, and concrete pad for trailer parking completes the practicality.
