Nestled at the end of a quiet no-through road and surrounded by serene native bushland, this charming cottage on 1610m² offers the ideal weekend getaway or tranquil permanent residence.
Designed for low-maintenance living, the cottage lets you spend your weekends relaxing-not working. Unwind on the sun-drenched deck, enjoy leisurely forest walks, wander along the nearby Lerderderg River, or cosy up by the wood fire with your favourite book or movie.
Inside, the home has been freshly updated, featuring rustic pine-lined ceilings that add warmth and character. The inviting living area includes an Ultimate Cosy woodburning fire, slate hearth, ceiling fan and soft carpet.

The spacious, leafy block is planted with a mix of native and ornamental trees-blackwood, cypress pine, maple-creating a picturesque canopy and outlook. Outdoor living continues with a charming gazebo complete with built-in BBQ, perfect for long lunches or evening gatherings, plus a handy tool shed for storage.
