‘Girrawheen’ or ‘place of flowers’ perfectly suits this charming circa 1930/40s cottage, situated on a beautiful large corner garden block dotted with mature deciduous trees, established beds brimming with azaleas, rhododendrons and perfect lawns. The beautifully maintained original section of the house contains two bedrooms, both with high ceilings and corner windows that give a lovely sense of light and airiness, offering views over the private garden. They flow into a lovely living room with large south facing windows and a slow combustion fire. A wooden country kitchen with its original wood-fired Newcastle Range sits in the heart of the home, joining the older part of the cottage with a beautiful extension in the form of a spacious, wooden gabled, living/dining area. This is a gorgeous room for all seasons with its wooden beams, bank of windows, 3 french doors opening to different aspects of the garden, a heated terracotta tile floor and a glass door/open fire that makes a stunning centrepiece. From this room cool shaded patios and a sunny deck to the north create a pleasant flow into the very special garden that has been thoughtfully planted over many years and immaculately tended.
Situated in an area which is a garden lovers paradise, it is surrounded by similar properties that give the neighborhood a beautifully wooded and gracious feel. Only minutes from the stunning Govetts Leap and a short trip to town, this is property is a rare and special delight.
