77 Princess St, Morpeth is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces. The property has a land size of 492m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in November 2014.
This lovable cottage is nestled among the Quiet Streets behind Morpeth and is only a short walk to the centre of the Hunters heritage heart.
This home is an ideal example of how a traditional period cottage can be successfully transformed into a desirable home that exceeds todays living standards without surrendering its authentic character. Many of the original features are incorporated in the recently completed refurbishment, such as the polished hard wood timber floors with high skirtings, double hung sash windows and high ceilings that maintain a connection to its heritage and place.
A full width bullnose verandah stretches across a humble cottage faade, behind a neat white picket fence divided by a welcoming arbour over the central gate.
Through the original front door, the entry hall divides two generously sized front bedrooms fitted with built-in cupboards. The existing dado panelling along the hall walls have been transformed into feature blocks of bold colour.
The original feature division breezeway separating the lounge room has been maintained as a reminder of the homes origins. The open white washed lounge room is bright and cosy, the addition of the black slow combustion heater is both practical and acts as a visual focal point in the room.
An absolutely stunning bathroom and Ensuite separated by a common wall are both finished in monochromatic palettes and have tiled floors with floor to ceiling tiled walls. Modern furnishings such as the free standing 1800mm oval bath tub and the spacious showers with all the adjustable fittings spell indulgence. These upgrades not only look great, they provide a superior experience.
This extends to the open planed kitchen/meals/family area across the rear of the home. The kitchen exhibits excellent quality stainless steel appliances against glossy white and glazed cabinetry and glass splashback. White 40mm stone topped benches provide plenty of preparation space and the huge, central island bench with waterfall edges, breakfast bar, recessed dual stainless steel basins and mixer tap easily handles all the action. Double hung sash windows with plantation shutters and French doors to the rear deck lets light pour into the huge space.
The laundry with additional separate toilet, stone topped benches and recessed stainless steel basin complete this carefully considered refurbishment. A ramp leading down from the laundry door is further proof that everything has been thought of that will enable this home to be a pleasure to reside in for any family or couple seeking a comfortable lifestyle.
Beyond the home, a separate double garage with a deep verandah across the front faces the yard providing another covered outdoor area. The secure yard is fully enclosed with Colorbond fences and gates.
Yesteryear blends together with style and functionality demanded today, creating a fusion of new and old cleverly combined.
