Gracing one of Newtown's most coveted tree-lined streets, “Lawrence Cottage” is an enchanting period residence beautifully renovated to unite timeless character with considered contemporary design.
A white picket fence and inviting wrap-around verandah, adorned with heritage fretwork, set the tone from the street, complemented by a lead-light door and established cottage gardens. Inside, the interiors reveal soaring ceilings, authentic timber floorboards, ornate ceiling roses, a decorative archway and original fireplaces, while the tiled hallway provides a distinctive introduction to the home's eclectic aesthetic.
A thoughtfully designed rear extension creates an exceptional open-plan living, kitchen and dining zone, bathed in natural light courtesy of an expansive wall of windows framing a lovely outlook across the rear garden. The designer kitchen impresses, combining style and functionality with brand-new appliances, stone benchtops and a built-in pantry.
The spacious master bedroom features built-in robes and a beautifully appointed contemporary ensuite finished with terrazzo-style tiles, dual basins, a stone-topped timber vanity and a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms are serviced by the main bathroom, while a European laundry adds everyday convenience. Further highlights include zoned ducted heating and cooling, rear lane access via Raglan Street, parking for one vehicle and a powered garden shed.
Nestled among some of Geelong's most prestigious homes, this blue-chip position is just a short stroll from the boutiques, cafes and restaurants lining both ends of Pakington Street. Chilwell Primary School (zoned) is within easy walking distance, along with a choice of Geelong's top secondary colleges. The location also offers effortless access to the CBD, Geelong Waterfront, GMHBA Stadium and Geelong Train Station, putting everything the city has to offer right at your doorstep.
