Located within the town boundary and walking distance to the local shops, this delightful cottage is homely and spacious inside.
Renovated throughout a number of years ago, the style is in keeping with the era of the turn of the century, and much of the character of the cottage has been retained.
The kitchen is vinyl wrapped and constructed of Celery Top and Blackwood timbers. The bathroom has also been renovated and is beautifully presented.
Prior to the owners purchase some time ago, a large living/dining area was added giving the home a spacious and sunny feel that flows out to a covered patio area for outdoor entertaining and views of the farmers cows roaming over the back fence is also a lovely sight to see.
There are polished floorboards inside the home, carpets added in 2002, a wood heater and a ducted air conditioner installed, as well as original Baltic walls and ceilings.
Outside is just beautiful with a spectacular large deciduous Golden Elm tree, that gives shade in summer and lets sun through in winter. Large windows make the most of catching the sun in colder months.
The weatherboard exterior was painted18 months ago, with a lovely new verandah floor added.
There is an extra high double carport, as well as a garage suitable for a small car.
Also staying with the property, is a large shipping container that is cleverly disguised behind the garage that serves as a lockup work shop with shelving. In the back yard is a shed for multiple uses, currently houses the laundry, as well as a wood shed or storage area.
One of the most desirable aspects of this home is that the local school rear entrance is just over the road, but separated by the large oval area, so noise is kept to a minimum. Parents do not need to rush home to collect older children as they can organise themselves to walk home safely.
The town ship of Lilydale is only around 20 minutes from Launceston and offers a variety of specialty stores including the IGA, post office, chemist, doctor, petrol, and building/ hardware supplies.
This lovely cottage will not last long, so book a viewing now, you will not be disappointed.
