Description
Cottage charm blended with a sublime contemporary palette on a magical “hills flat” half acre, this charismatic home delivers comfort, style and a touch of Patch history for those looking to escape urban life, change pace and settle in a magical location just 750m from The Patch Store. Set on flowering and fruiting woodland style gardens that offer brilliant autumn displays and an eruption of bulbs come spring, there’s magic in the air through all the seasons. It's the perfect combination of irreplaceable history and sharp design for contemporary comfort, in a wonderfully walkable location close to the town’s essentials.
A cosy living area with hardwood timber floors welcomes the light through well placed picture windows and invites downtime with an alluring original brick fireplace as a centrepiece. On the other side of the fireplace, the chic skylit kitchen reveals a culinary haven for home chefs with Caesarstone waterfall benches, communal island and stainless-steel appliances including 900mm La Germainia cooker plus the original slow combustion stove paying homage to its authentic past. Tucked off a hallway two comfortable bedrooms are serviced by a beautiful bathroom gleaming with monsoon shower and deep soak bath plus a powder room.
The terraced allotment unfolds from the home via stacker doors to sunny alfresco deck wrapped in wisteria and ornamental grapevines – the ideal setting for entertaining or relaxing as the kids dash among the gardens. It’s a wonderland for the young and young at heart with cottage-style gardens flowing to blankets of lawn at the rear under the shade of a majestic chestnut tree. Connect with nature and indulge in the sweet fruits of your own paradise with plums, walnuts, figs, apples, lemons, limes, apricots, crabapple, quince and a berry patch all on show, and there’s maples, hydrangeas and ornamental pear trees adding to the allure.
