There’s something instantly comforting about a classic weatherboard cottage, and this 1950s beauty delivers that feeling in spades. Set proudly atop a gently sloping 1260m² (approx.) allotment, it pairs timeless character with private, leafy surrounds and everyday convenience, creating a home that feels equally suited to quiet weekends or lively family living.
Step inside and the mood is unmistakably warm. A generous living room welcomes you with polished timber boards underfoot, high ceilings overhead, Craftsman-style windows filtering in soft natural light, and a cosy wood fire ready to turn winter evenings into a ritual worth lingering over. It’s the kind of space that naturally gathers people, whether for board games, movie nights or simply good conversation.
The kitchen blends practicality with personality, offering updated appliances including a dishwasher alongside a gorgeous original ornamental wood stove that tips its hat to the home’s heritage. Nearby, the dining area is bathed in greenery thanks to its connection to the outdoors, and it flows seamlessly out to a covered deck that works beautifully as a year-round entertaining and second living zone. Morning coffee, Sunday brunch or sunset catch-ups all feel right at home here, with visiting wildlife and regular kookaburra calls a quiet reminder of the home’s natural surrounds.
Two bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, complemented by a fresh, modern bathroom with frameless shower over bath. Outside, the expansive backyard unfolds beneath mature trees and ample lawn, offering space for kids, pets, veggie patches or future plans, with scope to extend if desired (STCA).
And the location? Hard to beat. Upwey Primary is visible just beyond your back fence, while cafés, transport, shops and schools are all an easy stroll away. Hills tranquillity meets village convenience, with the best of both worlds right at your doorstep.
