‘Kersbrook Cottage’
A prominent location, brimming with cottage’ charm!
This original one room cottage dates back to 1865 and in 1903 to 1912 the home was used as the original school for the Verdun area.
Today the renovated home offers a spacious kitchen area with double sink, Society Chef’ six hotplate gas hot top and combined gas oven (plus an electric warming oven). The area also steps down and extends to embrace a formal dining area, plus second family room which looks out into the back yard via the open large glass windows in the separate sunroom, which also has rustic paved brick flooring.
Very recently all carpets have been replaced, some interior and exterior painting has been completed and bedroom four has had new bi-fold doors installed and bedroom two has had a total re-vamp.
The formal lounge at the front of the home offers a Massport, slow combustion log fire in the original feature stone fireplace. This room adjoins the original front double size bedroom. Bedroom two is located off from the family living area and also provides separate exterior access. The third bedroom is located off of the kitchen area and the fourth bedroom or study at the rear of the home adjoins the main bathroom with shower over bath, two door vanity cupboard, wall mounted bar heater and temperature control unit for the gas hot water.
The laundry and combined second bathroom offers separate corner shower, separate toilet, deep laundry sink and outside access.
The rear of the home offers a pergola area, which is well protected by mature plants and trees, also offering privacy is a purpose built timber slat feature wall. The rear garden area also offers Prunus, two golden Elms, Ash and Willow, Agapanthus and vine growing over the side fence.
Two access points for vehicle entry is provided via Sandow Road, one offering a carport and the second entry is via double gates. A garden shed and associated storage shedding is found at the rear of the yard and the property is connected to STEDS.
A unique property, offering character and space, within easy walking distance to local shops, the city bound bus and the Hills Christian Community School.
