Return verandahs frame the symmetrical cottage & late afternoon light radiates through the brightly coloured leadlight that highlights the cottages entrance, splaying a warm glow across textured tin & the honeyed timber floors. Three king size bedrooms & a separate lounge are all situated in this peaceful cottage portion of the residence, restored yet remaining highly original.
Morning light floods in through the glassed-in lifestyle space & amazing rear extension, where views stretch out across the property to the pine forest on the hilltop boundary. Polished concrete compliments the western red cedar, stainless steel & glass accents of this light-filled open-plan space & as day turns to night, down-lights & track lighting spectacularly take over. Under floor heating features throughout this contemporary addition & lifestyle flows around the streamlined commercial style island kitchen designed to marry entertaining, dining & food preparation with company & conversation. A trap door & solid jarrah steps access the underground wine cellar & just outside the kitchen door, lime & mandarin trees, a raised veggie plot & herb garden are at easy reach.
The bathroom & laundry are superbly designed rooms to be enjoyed, both functional & beautifully modern, a sleek Tasmanian Oak partition cleverly divides the living space from the wet areas & conceals a pantry, abundant storage & computer nook.
Life spills out to the Mediterranean inspired garden setting, where capital pear trees stand proudly beside the open air courtyard, its space defined by retaining walls & concrete pavers. A snow pear, weeping mulberry, a line of elms, rows of english box hedge & a lovely elevated lawn area further enhance the setting. Up beyond the 20 x 30 garage, huge old trees offer shady picnic sites & the perfect limbs on which to hang a childhood swing. The propertys huge 70,000 litres of rainwater storage is neatly tucked away.
The property offers a breathtaking back drop where you can start your new life, a place of natural beauty, fabulous history & immense character.
