Renovated Character Cottage with Filtered City Views

Description

With filtered city views from its elevated location, this renovated character cottage stands proud on over 928m2. It is well positioned for lush and leafy treetop outlooks from all angles providing an enchanting haven to call home whether it’s for a night, a weekend or forever. The premium Kalorama address will entice young couples, first home buyers, investors or perhaps even potential rental income in this prime tourist destination.
The upper level has a cosy nook kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and a timber island bench complementing elegant, polished timber floors. The kitchen also incorporates the laundry with its clever use of space. Adjoining is an ambient living/dining zone with vast windows framing tree top views and warmed by a toasty open fire. Also on this level is a bedroom with an outlook to a private terrace to enjoy starry skies or a nightcap.
The “secret” lower level will surprise and delight and features a lavishly sized second bedroom with outdoor access and stunning family bathroom with luxurious egg bath and rain-head shower accented by a feature rock wall that is unlike anything else in the hills.
The magical tiered gardens could be anything you imagine and currently comprise Edna Walling style stone walls with meandering walkways and lush flora creating a haven for birdlife and relaxed quietude. The higher you climb, the better the views! There are also plenty of flat spaces for setting up the BBQ or the firepit.
With featured extras including rainwater tanks, hydronic heating, ceiling fans and a rock wall maintaining a consistent temperature, this home is ready for a new chapter.
