Some homes simply have a feeling about them - and this sweet original cottage is one of them.
Built in 1962 and lovingly held by the same owner ever since, 233 Fern Street is a rare opportunity to secure a character-filled home on a generous, mostly level 778sqm block, with space to create something truly special.
Bathed in natural light, the original two-bedroom cottage enjoys a leafy outlook from almost every window, while a number of its much-loved period features remain intact. Look beneath the existing carpet and you'll find original timber floorboards, while ornate ceilings, an original fireplace and the classic bathroom - built in an era when things were made to last - add to the home's undeniable charm.
Large windows capture lovely views across the neighbouring farmland at the front, while the rear of the home enjoys a peaceful outlook towards the escarpment and Saddleback Mountain - a great combination of rural and mountain views in such a convenient location.
Outside, the possibilities continue. Side access leads through to the expansive rear garden, while the substantial block offers plenty of room to reimagine the property. For those looking further ahead, there may even be scope to explore a second storey and make the most of the outlook (STCA).
Yes, this one will need a little love. A paintbrush, some elbow grease and a vision will go a long way - but for the buyer who can see beyond the surface, there is an abundance of potential.
And then there is the location. Just over one kilometre from Gerringong town centre, Gerringong Public School and beautiful Boat Harbour, this is a wonderfully positioned property with the best of the village, coastline and countryside all within easy reach.
Whether you're looking for a character cottage to restore, a home to gradually transform, or a generous parcel of land with exciting future possibilities, 233 Fern Street deserves your attention.
A little original. A little nostalgic. And full of potential.
