The William Savage Cottage, a distinguished circa 1855 stone residence, stands as a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of one of Robe's foundational builders. This significant property, situated over two separate titles, has been thoughtfully reimagined, seamlessly marrying the weight of history with a sophisticated modern extension that prioritises light, volume, and effortless livability. The original structure retains its storied character while transitioning into an expansive architectural sanctuary that caters to the demands of a high end coastal lifestyle. Whilst the vacant allotment of approximately 595sqm, offers excellent development potential or extend and expand the property further (STCC).
The cottage and land can be purchased separately with a right of way to the vacant land off Union Street which will be completed prior to settlement.
Central to the residence, a vast open plan kitchen and dining area flows into a living space anchored by the warmth of a traditional open fire. The kitchen is a culinary centerpiece, designed for large scale entertaining. Large windows and an intelligent layout ensure the interior is bathed in natural light, creating an atmosphere that is both grand and intimate, perfect for hosting guests or enjoying quiet family moments.
The residence is designed around a central decked courtyard, providing a private, sheltered oasis accessible from multiple points within the home. This outdoor gallery serves as a versatile extension of the living space, offering a tranquil setting for alfresco dining under the coastal sky. Beyond the immediate dwelling, the property occupies a substantial corner allotment featuring a rare 300 square metre vacant rear yard, providing exceptional vehicle access and further potential for development (STCC) or manicured gardens.
