Steeped in local history and lovingly restored with an incredible eye for detail, Elm Cottage is a truly special three-bedroom home that keeps so much of its original character while still offering the modern improvements you want.
Originally brought into Deniliquin from the Warbreccan Subdivision in the late 1940s, the cottage has been carefully renovated while retaining many of its original features. One of the real standouts is the original 1920s thick cypress pine floorboards, which were carefully removed, cleaned, sanded and reused throughout areas of the home, keeping a genuine connection to its past.
Inside, the home offers three bedrooms with the master featuring built-in robes and a private ensuite. High ceilings, timber detailing, striking hallway fretwork and an original restored fireplace mantle all add to the cottage feel, while brand new split-system air conditioning provides year-round comfort. Both the ensuite and main bathroom have been fully refurbished, with the finishes chosen to stay in keeping with the style and character of the home.
The kitchen continues the warm country feel with timber benchtops, soft green cabinetry and vintage-inspired finishes, while still offering plenty of space for a dining table.
A lot of the major work has also been taken care of including new plumbing, updated electrical work and comprehensive restumping.
Outside, the attention to detail continues with a brand-new front verandah, constructed with a new frame and finished using restored original cypress boards. Low maintenance coastal Australian landscaping and outdoor areas all suit the character of the home, while the generous 910m² block provides plenty of space.
Elm Cottage is more than just a renovated home, it's a genuine piece of Deniliquin history that has been brought back to life without losing the charm that makes it so unique.
