On the fringe of Mt. George Conservation Park and just a 5-minute spin from Stirling, follow Foxhill Road’s fork to no-through seclusion, some 2500sqm of land, and a symmetrical cottage swathed in last century charm.
If it’s rustic and romantic you want, it’s right here.
Cuteness and quirk follow this 2-bedroom cottage with lofty ceilings, living and bedroom open fires, and a whitewashed country timber kitchen putting a new electric stove in place of its original wood stove nook.
Who knows where style and an extra dose of TLC can take it?
Improved over time, thanks to new split system air conditioning, updated carpets to the bedrooms and lounge, a new heat pump for the bore (the cottage’s water supply) and a new hot water service.
The meals zone/sunroom will press noses to its warm garden-seeking glass stealing light and views – ideal for a book and a coffee – rounding off its character with exposed stonework and a staircase to a cellar below.
Or take that coffee (or Cabernet) outdoors to the concreted verandah where a pair of wicker chairs and a throw rug belong, peering over those paddocks of possibility…
Focus more value-adding scope on the vintage bathroom in tip toe distance to the comfortably sized master – bedroom 2 across the hall hosting an open fire and built-in robes.
Where to start and if ever to finish is this lush land’s flavour; wander rambling brick paths, traipse through tall timber, or follow the winter creek. Imagine a menagerie, a pony, or perhaps even bigger plans (STCC).
Detached double iron garaging for 2 cars, a shed for the bore pump, and Karkoo Cottage – the label given to the wood, utility or lawnmower shed – lifts its practicality.
Be it a total renovation with lifestyle potential or a reclusive, live for now hills treasure, it’s over to you to toss that coin a 10-minute drive to the Tollgate.
