Character cottage with a 'touch of English Charm'
When you enter Longford the greeting says where ‘History and gardens entwine’ and that is a certaintiy apt for this lovely 1860s cottage.
As I mentioned Longford will delight those that love history and this gorgeous cottage has just that. She was built in 1860 and some of the delightful features will be the ‘little touch of English charm’ she has to offer. There are the timber floors, some timber ceilings and original dado. The kitchen is quaint with gas cooktop, bench top oven and a country profile on the doors, drawers & pantry. The bathroom is elegant and fully updated, waterproofed and council approved - the finishes are crisp white, with subway style tiling.
