From history to home; 1840s cottage charm casts its spell!
As the plaque glued to its whitewashed stone facade suggests, there’s a prominent past to this 1840s cottage. From its glory days as a blacksmith and post office in the bustling heart of Oakbank, to today where it’s fresh, light, and poised for a modern family…
Renovated and extended over time, it now boasts a generous lounge room, central living room, 3 well-spaced bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all lavished in creamy neutrals to accentuate its cute-as-a-button ambience while providing ample space for all family and couple necessities on its 669sqm block.
Outside, the canvas is bare, with scope to landscape or extend (STCC).
The opportunity exists for you to add your own finishing touches to the clean, modest bathrooms and mid-20th century galley style kitchen, but the chunky stone walls, character fireplaces, original polished Baltic boards and history are all here to shine.
The master bedroom accesses the cellar, an adjoining dressing room and an ensuite, and opens to the front verandah. Yesterday’s post office past could so easily become tomorrow’s home office future.
As the cottage’s comfortable and central meeting place, the living room branches off to bedroom 2, a dining room with fireplace, and a rear open plan laundry/mudroom – a valuable attribute for an Oakbank block…
From cellar doors to main street amenity, bike trails to trackside race days; style comes and goes but history and country belong together. Where else but here?
