Built in the early 1900s, this beautifully preserved Railway Symmetrical Cottage seamlessly blends history, character, and modern comfort-all in a prime central location.
Enter through the picket gate to discover an enchanting cottage garden, shaded by a magnificent Chinese Elm and showcasing the home's original stone-and-red-brick façade. Timber sash windows, a classic front door, and a welcoming verandah set an unforgettable first impression.
Inside, polished original floorboards, soaring ceilings, detailed architraves, and traditional fireplaces create an inviting sense of warmth. Three spacious bedrooms provide ample accommodation, while the country kitchen stands out with its original wood stove cavity, electric cooking, and split-system comfort.
A sympathetic rear addition maintains the home's character, featuring a bathroom with shower-over-spa bath, pedestal basin, and toilet. The original outside wash house preserves the property's historic charm.
Outdoors, the appeal continues. Enjoy evenings on the rear deck, entertain under the pergola, or let children roam the lush 920sqm block, filled with fruit trees, a veggie garden, and established cottage plantings. Pedestrian side access leads to a powered, concrete-floor shed-perfect for hobbies or storage.

Brand new side fencing
Chook yard
Outdoor blinds around the pergola
5000L rainwater storage
Ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning in the original part of the home

All this, just a short stroll to shops, cafes, pubs, and both main streets. A property that has truly stood the test of time, ready to embrace its next chapter.
