Isn’t she lovely…
The five roomed symmetrical cottage is well situated. In close proximity to shops, schooling and the city bound bus.
Listed as ‘Historic Site number 34′, the original 1880′s ’221 Onkaparinga Valley Road’ cottage has seen over 134 years of change throughout Oakbank, and more recently, she has been transformed into the beauty that she is today.
The front of the property is nicely framed by a white picket fence, which enhances the ‘cottage’ feel. The cottage’ gardens have been lovingly planned and maintained, including standard white roses, Manchurian pear trees and lavender. There are also dedicated, raised vegetable beds on the north eastern side of the home.
The cottage has been extensively renovated in recent years and offers new roof, partial re-wiring, re-plastering, external rendering and more. The home includes three bedrooms (one with an open fire place) and a well proportioned lounge room, also offering open fire place. There are polished timber floor boards throughout and high veilings compliment the home beautifully. The kitchen offers a large gas oven, single stainless steel sink, freestanding cabinet and free moving island bench.
At the rear of the home is the laundry, updated bathroom and separate toilet. There is a garden/implement shed with paved floor and a lovely lawned rear yard with pittosporum hedging. Mains water is connected to the home and hot water is supplied via a Vulcan 250 litre, mains pressure style system. The property has also been connected to mains sewer.
A great location. A cottage that just gets better with age, a real head turner!
