This classic cottage offers 3 bedrooms plus sunroom on a big, big 1768.3 sq metre block just 500 metres from the heart of Dorrigo. With high ceilings throughout, it has old world charm and the original curved kitchen cupboards are classic art deco. The block is very gently sloping, 95% fenced and has the potential to be sub divided into 2 or possibly 3 blocks (subject to council approval). Having been in the same family hands since 1970 the time has come to sell this blue chip residential property in Dorrigo. It has served them well and is in exceptionally good order for its age, with many features still in original condition.

In keeping with the style of the time, when you enter this home through the front door, you enter a carpeted hall with 2 bedrooms to the right and the living room to the left. Bedroom 1 (4 x 3.5m) offers plenty of space and bedroom 2 (3.5 x 3m) is also a good size, particularly by today’s standards. There are no built in robes but there are two large wardrobes that have been constructed in bedrooms 1 and 2 that won’t be going anywhere.

Bedroom 3 (3.7 x 2.7m), again in classic style of the times since this home was built, is in fact an enclosed verandah. Accessed through the living room it provides a great additional bedroom space if that is what you need.

The kitchen is a classic of its time with many original features, and whilst by today’s standards it is a bit light on for cupboards, drawers and bench space, in its day it would have been absolute luxury, complete with slow combustion wood stove that has since been removed and replaced with upright electric within the brick hearth.

The living room (4.2 x 4m) is a comfortable space, and cosy in winter with a fan forced slow combustion log burner that does a fantastic job keeping this home warm in those colder months, plus there is a reverse cycle split system air-conditioner for ideal climate control at the touch of a button.

The dining room offers plenty of space and for many years has been a favourite spot to sit and watch the world go by, while breathing the fresh mountain air and enjoying fantastic views.

The sunroom (enclosed verandah) is also home to the laundry, since the original laundry was modified to make room for a disabled shower.

Finally, the bathroom ……….well the bathroom………is mostly original, with vanity, shower over bath lined with lamipanel and …….. ready for renovating.

So as the heading says, position, position with potential plus on a big, big block …………
