Just 5 km from the city, yet it feels like another time and place! Hidden behind tall boundary fences and trees is a delightful surprise; a substantial home, a double garage, double carport, established gardens and all the space and privacy of a huge 1222m2 block. Like a story book cottage, this lovely sandstone home with wraparound verandahs and dormer windows, exudes character and charm. But don’t be fooled by its cute appearance, as there is ample accommodation on offer here. There are bedrooms, bathrooms and living spaces on both levels and incorporated into the ground floor is the original cottage, approximately 100 years old. This area would make an ideal granny flat, with two bedrooms, shower room and living space, and with its own entrance. Elsewhere in the home is a large open plan living area, dining area with bay window and window seat, and well equipped kitchen. Upstairs are three lovely attic style bedrooms, bathroom, storage room and a large living room or study-library. Features abound throughout the property, with timber beams, Baltic pine lining and the original staircase salvaged from a NW Coast hotel. if you love character and value space and privacy, this could be the home for you!
