Description

Brimming with character behind picture perfect pickets, this alluring cottage style home has all the old-world charm you would expect from a 60s original and has sympathetically evolved to meet the needs of each owner to create a period charmer with modern style and comforts. Showcasing polished timber floors, stunning picture windows, ornate cornices, lofty high ceilings and a flowing natural connection to the outdoors, this beautifully charismatic home will meet the needs of young and growing families particularly those who are seeking an expansive block with space for trailers, boats or caravans.

Leadlight allure at the entrance gives way to a glassed foyer that opens into the living domain inclusive of original timber floors, free-flowing living, and stone fireplace as a centrepiece.

Separately zoned, a spacious kitchen encompasses stone benchtops, chic plantation shutters and stainless-steel appliances and sits opposite a breakfast nook with banquette seating – the perfect spot for casual meals or coffee and the laptop.
Throw open the bevelled French doors and enjoy the shady entertaining deck care of a stunning pin oak tree that unfolds like live art – apt given it is thought the home was once an art house and part of the old Morrison farm. In the afternoon take the cheese and crackers and your favourite drop to the front porch and relax Hamptons style against a hydrangea backdrop. You can even add some fresh figs handpicked from your bountiful fig tree.

A master bedroom with floor to ceiling built-in robes and an ensuite, and two more generously sized bedrooms are all thoughtfully placed apart from the lively family hub. This warm and inviting home's clever floorplan is completed with a family bathroom with monsoon shower and laundry with drying rack, both recently renovated to provide a fresh modern look.

Framed by pretty cottage gardens that feature magnolias, fragrant lavender, manicured hedges and clematis, the super-sized block has multiple access points for secure caravan/boat/trailer parking and is fully fenced for child’s play.
