DAISY TREE COTTAGE
UTTERLY CAPTIVATING, THIS ORIGINAL THREE-BEDROOM VICTORIAN HOMESTEAD SET AMONG HALF AN ACRE OF TRANQUIL OLD WORLD GARDENS EVOKES THE ROMANCE, GRACE AND GRANDEUR OF A BYGONE ERA TO OFFER A UNIQUE WEEKEND GETAWAY, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY OR UNFORGETTABLE COASTAL HOME. RELOCATED FROM GIPPSLAND IN 1995 AND UPDATED WITH SOME NECESSARY CREATURE COMFORTS, THE HOME REPRESENTS A NEAR PERFECT TIME CAPSULE OF ITS ERA FROM THE MELLOW WARMTH OF ITS SUPERB ORIGINAL FLOORBOARDS TO ITS MAJESTIC 3.8M CEILINGS AND THE ELABORATE, FULLY-RESTORED DECORATIVE PLASTERWORK IN BETWEEN. BEYOND A TRADITIONAL WIDE BULLNOSE VERANDAH THAT RETURNS DOWN TWO SIDES, THE HOME REVEALS ITS CHARMS TO INCLUDE A GRAND CENTRAL HALLWAY FLANKED BY A PAIR OF ELEGANT RECEPTION ROOMS EACH WITH PRETTY SASH WINDOWS, STUNNING CEILING ROSES AND OPEN FIREPLACES BOASTING AN EFFICIENT DRAW. OPEN FIREPLACES AGAIN FEATURE IN TWO OF THE THREE LOVELY BEDROOMS, WHILE THE SERENE MASTER HAS BEEN RETROFITTED WITH EXTENSIVE BUILT-IN ROBES. THE SPACIOUS BATHROOM FEATURES AN ORIGINAL CAST IRON CLAW FOOT BATH WITH EXPOSED PLUMBING FOR INDULGENT SOAKING PLUS A MODERN SHOWER AND THERE IS ALSO A SEPARATE POWDER ROOM. RUBY LEADLIGHT PANELS FRAME THE ENTRY TO A COUNTRY KITCHEN/DINER THAT INCORPORATES A WALK-IN LARDER AND HANDY MUDROOM CONNECTING TO THE LAUNDRY, WHILE FRENCH DOORS OPEN TO THE SHADE OF THE VERANDAH, PERFECT FOR THAT FIRST CUP OF TEA EACH MORNING. A SHORT DRIVE TO BAY AND OCEAN BEACHES, LEADING GOLF CLUBS AND THE MYRIAD DELIGHTS OF THE PENINSULA''S HINTERLAND REGION, EXTRAS INCLUDE HEAT BANK ELECTRIC PANELS, BARBECUE PATIO, GARDEN WELL AND IRRIGATION SYSTEM PLUS A CARPORT ACCESSED VIA A PRIVATE SERVICE ROAD.
