Improvements -
Cottage: The charming country chic cottage, that has stood the test of time, has been tastefully renovated by the current owners featuring sanded and stained natural timber floors, new paint, new tiled bathroom and a kitchen that would make Grandma smile with envy with its new upright gas stove, granite top kitchen cupboards and the old wood stove 'pride of place'.
Relax in the evening out on the rustic verandah, with a glass of wine and cheese platter, as you admire cattle grazing on the pastures and ducks playfully swimming on the adjacent dam. Entertain your guests with the stories of the early 'Gold Rush' days of Pratten where pubs and churches held prominent landmarks in this once bustling community.
