So if it’s cute and quirky, something a little more interesting than the norm that you long for, then this central Queanbeyan cottage is well worth an inspection.

The current owner has done a wonderful job blending the original features with the new, carefully considering how to maximise the space to include storage and create a warm homely feel throughout. Extensive windows flood the generous floor plan with natural light and the positioning of three good sized bedrooms around the entry, lounge and kitchen areas ensures both a workable and flexible floor plan.

It would have to be said that the renovated kitchen that adjoins the dining/family area is the main focus of the home. Large work surfaces are adorned with modern lighting and the Smeg appliances are sure to please. While the partially refurbished original timber floors run through most of the home, the main entry is the ideal place for welcoming both family and friends.

The cottage is positioned on a large elevated block and provides views to the east and the benefits of being able to walk to both the Queanbeyan CBD, Karabar shops plus public transport and school routes are practically at your front door.

So if you’re a first home buyer, mechanic, handyman or artisan who is looking for more than just a home, don’t miss wandering around the back garden because the brand new double garage with power and room to move is a bonus as is the additional laundry and storage facility.
