Originally built in 1914, Galway Cottage is a beautifully presented character home where timeless charm and thoughtful modern updates come together to create an inviting and comfortable place to call home. Lovingly renovated and extended over the years, the property celebrates its heritage while providing the space, functionality and conveniences suited to modern-day living.
From the moment you step inside, the home's character is immediately apparent. Polished pine floorboards flow through the welcoming hallway, complemented by soaring ceilings that enhance the wonderful sense of space and light throughout the original portion of the home.
Positioned at the front are two generously proportioned bedrooms, while the third bedroom is equally spacious and includes a built-in robe for excellent storage. All three bedrooms are complete with ceiling fans, providing additional comfort throughout the warmer months.
The character-filled lounge room provides a cosy retreat and features an ornate fireplace that creates a beautiful focal point, while the impressive ceiling height adds to the room's airy and spacious feel. A slow combustion fireplace provides further warmth and ambience, making this a wonderful home to enjoy throughout every season.
Moving through to the extended section of the home, tiled flooring introduces a more contemporary living zone incorporating the dining area and a second living space. Large picture windows are a standout feature here, beautifully framing the established and landscaped rear garden while allowing natural light to fill the room. It's an inviting space for everyday family living, entertaining guests or simply sitting back and enjoying the peaceful garden outlook.
The modern kitchen offers excellent practicality with a freestanding electric oven, dishwasher and two pantries providing generous storage. A cleverly incorporated European-style laundry, complete with washing machine provision, maximises the use of space and keeps everyday household tasks conveniently located.
A standout feature is the brand-new bathroom, completely renovated with stylish floor-to-ceiling tiles, a spacious shower, quality vanity cabinetry and practical face-level storage within the mirrored cabinet.
Outside, the home continues to impress with a covered entertaining area and pergola providing the ideal setting for relaxed afternoons, family barbecues or entertaining friends. The landscaped rear garden creates a private and welcoming backdrop, while the fully fenced and secure yard will be particularly appealing to families with children and those looking for plenty of usable outdoor space.
Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the rainwater system, which is plumbed throughout the home, along with the established grounds, chook house and garden shed. A single garage with adjoining workshop provides valuable secure parking together with additional space for tools, hobbies and projects.
Rich in history, character and warmth, yet thoughtfully adapted for today's lifestyle, Galway Cottage offers something increasingly difficult to find - the charm and craftsmanship of an early 1900s home combined with comfortable, practical living and a beautiful established garden setting.
For buyers who appreciate homes with genuine personality and a story to tell, Galway Cottage is ready to begin its next chapter.
