Positioned on 828m2 (approx.), appreciate this compelling pairing of an exquisitely restored Victorian era cottage and a separate cottage studio, nestled within a romantic English-Australian style, landscaped garden setting. Built in 1896, Morris Cottage and its accompanying Garden Cottage studio sit side by side as warm and welcoming retreats, ideal for permanent living, luxurious weekend escapes, or income generating short stay accommodation in the heart of historic Trentham.
Instilled with timeless character and styled with a modern country sensibility, the main residence exudes warmth and authenticity. A sheltered, wisteria covered front verandah captures golden sunsets, while inside, a refined living room with wood fire and built in bookshelves presents a tranquil place to relax and rejuvenate framed by lush green outlooks. The generous country kitchen opens to the rear verandah and comes with a classic Nectar wood burning stove, range oven, stone benchtops and a Belfast sink, and a sunroom extends to the north. Includes a bathroom with laundry facilities and two enchanting bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with built in joinery and a charming window seat.
Set privately behind the garden, the Garden Cottage has also been beautifully renovated, offering self contained comfort with its own living area, kitchenette, and bathroom. Accessed via a shared carport with ample storage, it’s the perfect addition for guests, holiday letting or a creative space. The garden is simply superb, presenting a romantic landscape designed by Kaz Krasovskis, featuring a blend of traditional English planting and cooler climate species that thrive in Trentham’s unique environment. Manicured lawns, mature deciduous trees, espaliered fruit trees, berry bushes and boxed vegetable gardens are all thoughtfully integrated, along with a potting shed and chicken coop.
Additional features include double glazing, heating and cooling and insulation to both cottages and 14 solar panels. Positioned in a quiet, highly sought pocket of Trentham directly opposite Stony Creek Reserve, the property offers the best of both worlds. Tranquil bushland outlooks, native wildlife and the picturesque Wombat Trail are at your doorstep or reach Trentham village within minutes to on foot.
