Enter through the picket gate to discover an enchanting cottage garden, shaded by a magnificent Chinese Elm and showcasing the home's original stone-and-red-brick façade. Timber sash windows, a classic front door, and a welcoming verandah set an unforgettable first impression. Inside, polished original floorboards, soaring ceilings, detailed architraves, and traditional fireplaces create an inviting sense of warmth. Three spacious bedrooms provide ample accommodation, while the country kitchen stands out with its original wood stove cavity, electric cooking, and split-system comfort.
