Last Listing description (January 2018)

The feeling you get from the moment you step into this property is that of entering an enchanted world. The home is steeped in history being an original cypress pine clad workers cottage with a 2 storey brick addition. Surrounded by mature gardens that ooze nonchalance belying the years of hard work that has gone into their creation.
As you wander around the house and pathways outdoor rooms are revealed where you can while away the hours with a book or do a bit of bird-spotting from the deck. The game of hide and seek can be taken to the next level in this garden. Planting includes at least 30 camellias, dogwoods, banksia roses, lilac, citrus, apple & plum trees. Plus a sunny veggie garden. One of the two carports doubles as a support for the glorious wisteria.
Before we enter the main home take a moment to think about how you will use the separate tiny home - it could be the best Wendy house ever or even an income producing Air B&B. One more outbuilding - and that is the work shed for all your tinkering & projects.

And finally, step through the impressive double front doors into the large and airy entrance hall. Ascend the staircase to find a large rumpus or library space with office and covered balcony. The master bedroom with its own balcony too, entered via the spacious walk through robe, ensuite with double shower and separate toilet.
Downstairs, three further bedrooms all with BIR s and delightful views of the greenery outside. The main bathroom has a spa bath and double sinks. The kitchen looks out onto a large deck perfect for lunch and evening BBQ s. The meals area opens into the family room with a bar area. There is a separate formal dining room with butlers pantry which would also work as a playroom or downstairs study. A central double sided wood-fired coonara is the hero here and links the family area with the more formal lounge with vaulted ceiling.
Not only is there a Harry Potter cupboard under the stairs but this home also has a cellar - accessed from a trapdoor in the hallway and also from outside. A cool store to keep all your bottles of wine, beer & pickles!
This is an incredibly lovely family home. Solidly built and with plenty of mod-cons including a multitude of power points throughout and on the decks. GDH & reversible fans. Town Water & Water Tanks.
Hurry to inspect your little bit of paradise.
