Lovingly and extensively renovated by the current owners, the result of this beautifully presented country cottage is fresh, bright and light Hampton Style chic infused with a contemporary touch.
Sympathetic to its rural surroundings and location, everything from the white picket fenced frontage to the lush rear garden with its beautiful views to Mount Moon conveys country charm. Ample shedding, fruit trees, a dedicated veggie garden and a large fenced run and coop for the chooks completes the lifestyle. Outdoor entertaining is equally as appealing in winter as in summer, with an adorable pot belly stove a focal point for comforting warmth.
Inside, every nook and cranny has been maximised and enhanced with care taken to instil a thoughtful quality touch at every turn. The list of improvements and renovations goes on and on, resulting in a property that is as good as new from whitewashed timber floor to insulated ceiling. The beautiful new kitchen effortlessly blends up to the minute white gloss cupboards with traditional quality touches such as timber bench tops, a double butler sink and classic period style tapware. The laundry is styled to match and in complement is a fully renovated bathroom, beautifully finished with a freestanding bath, frameless shower and floating vanity.
