Rarely do weatherboard cottages of such classic proportions come to market in Blackheath.
This mindful restoration oozes restrained and effortless style, a crafted mix of old and new.
Generously proportioned rooms with high ceilings, restrained and elegant fittings and original casement windows with rose and yellow glass flood the rooms with soft light all day long.
Polished Kauri floors, elegant soft colours, beautiful rugs and art, attention to detail abounds everywhere in this lovely home.
Such a clever kitchen, spacious and modern where needed with quality European appliances but steeped in history and character elsewhere, a joy for the entertainer to create sumptuous delights for the dining table.
The bathroom is generous in dimension to say the least, with a huge rain shower, original claw foot bath and free standing sink, the whole room clad in gorgeous honed marble which again, is just right, so elegant, so stylish and so beautifully executed.
The spacious lounge and dining areas seamlessly link to the roomy covered deck through cedar French doors, linger here in the sun and then move further into the gardens down the wide and gentle wooden stairs.
Three generous bedrooms, with lovely high ceilings, wainscoting and polished floors complete this lovely home which to be honest, is a place of beauty.
Did we mention the gardens? Dogwoods, maples, heritage roses, azaleas, mature daphne’s and magnolia’s, even an ancient contorted hazeland a cute garden shed right out of a movie set.
Mountains weatherboards as stunning as this are rare, especially when treated with such respect and understanding to bring out the best of the old and the new.
