McMurtrie family Cottage North Street Mount Morgan built late 1800s (see photo from Mount Morgan Museum). This home sits on 1/2 an acre of land on the one title so there's plenty of room to expand!
The home is positioned at the top of North St, making it the last house on the high side, affording privacy, serenity and peek-a-boo views of the picturesque town and countryside, both day AND night. The rainforests inspired gardens provide additional privacy and shade to the property, making it so much cooler than expected.
The front veranda with broomstick railings and lattice screening is the perfect place to sit and have a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening with friends.
This 3-bedroom Queenslander Cottage with tongue & groove walls, sash windows with hoods, and beautiful hoop pine polished floors to every room, comes fitted out with air-conditioning already in 3 of the rooms. You could choose to open the two sets of French doors out front, coming off the main bedroom and lounge. Then throw open the sash windows and enjoy the fresh air afforded by the mountain breezes in the evening.
A perfectly proportioned lounge area and spacious dining/kitchen area with vintage cupboards and stunning fully functional vintage stove that perfectly matches the style and class of the home. It is ideal for those family get-togethers or having friends over for drinks, sitting on the preserved veranda, with its broomstick railings and lattice screening. Or perhaps entertaining in the enclosed courtyard. How about setting up a nice pergola area in the already cleared space out front, where you can soak up even more of the fantastic views.
With the neat and tidy bathroom, which has a shower and vanity unit, combining the laundry area in it, and the separate toilet, you waste none of your valuable floor and house space.
New point of entry electrical wiring and new switchboard was installed by Ergon and the home has been rewired with the oh so useful additional power points. There is plenty of power to add in a spacious 9 x 6 metre shed on the already cleared space at the side of the home.
The home has been completely replumbed and a new hot water system has been installed. A filtered water tap has also been installed in the kitchen. Additionally, a new septic system pump is installed, and the system was cleaned thoroughly in 2021.
The home has been freshly painted outside in a beautiful heritage green allowing the home to blend with the native environment.
Having 10s of thousands spent on plumbing, wiring, new bathroom, painting, timber floors, restumping, gardens and more, you will find there is next to nothing left to buy to make this your dream home.
