Once in a Lifetime Opportunity, Stunning Stone Cottage Circa 1915
A magnificent family home, nestled among Hawthorndene's historic precinct on a large 1580sqm corner allotment, with picturesque winter creek and beautiful established grounds. This charming symmetrical 1915 stone cottage is an exceptional example of the era and represents a unique opportunity to own a piece of Hawthorndene history.
Immaculately maintained, featuring stunning stonework, original polished boards, 12ft grand timber ceilings and architraves. Everything about this magical property is elegant and sympathetic to its time, the perfect fusion of old world charm meets functional family living.
Three large bedrooms, two with extensive built-in robes and the third with built-in shelving, an updated family bathroom with double vanity and a traditional free-standing claw bath with a lovely view to the rear garden. A separate powder room/toilet and large laundry with ample storage are conveniently located next to the side entry with 'mud room' area allowing direct access to the garden.
A grand formal lounge with slow combustion fireplace and traditional mantle, leads you through to the classic western red-cedar country style kitchen, acting as the heart of this beautiful home and overlooking the generous sunken family living area, with a gas fireplace and separate dining area. Every angle surrounded by glorious wooden picture windows and doors, taking in the garden outlook and birdlife, the perfect place for reflection, serenity, and a cosy glass of red on a winter's evening.
The fully fenced, wrap around garden truly is an immersive natures playground with something for everyone, including chook yard, gorgeous cubby house and children's play zone, veggie garden beds, powered workshop / shed, rainwater tank and winter creek.
A wonderful location and community. Walking distance to the iconic Joan's Pantry, Blackwood Train Station, Hewitt Oval, Apex Park, and the fantastic Minno Creek walking trails, not to mention Hawthorndene Primary School and GD Food Wholesalers are just around the corner. This is hills living at its finest yet only a short 20-minute drive to the CBD!
