Pretty as a picture and filled with character and an undeniable sense of warmth, this charming circa-1920 weatherboard cottage offers a wonderful opportunity to secure a beautifully presented two-bedroom residence in an incredibly convenient, central Bunbury location.
From the white fence and welcoming deep, front porch to the original Jarrah-clad weatherboards and beautiful period details, there is immediate appeal. Inside, soaring 11-foot ceilings, panelled walls and gorgeous original Jarrah floorboards create a light-filled interior with a wonderful sense of grace and space.
Both bedrooms are impressively large and provide particularly generous retreats. Each retains its original fireplace, currently not in use but offering the potential to be reinstated and enjoyed once again. Reverse-cycle air conditioning services both bedrooms and the living room, while ceiling fans add cooling comfort in summer.
At the heart of the home, the spacious renovated kitchen combines modern convenience with wonderful reminders of bygone days. The original wood-fired Metters stove remains in place and is still in working order, presenting the unique opportunity to cook and warm the home as generations have done before. There is also a Blanco five-burner gas stove as the modern equivalent and stainless-steel dishwasher. Excellent storage, a corner pantry and generous breakfast bar complete this highly functional kitchen with an area for meals adjoining this welcoming space.
The living area is bright and inviting, warmed by a charming gas log-look fireplace, while the original character continues throughout. The neat and tidy bathroom features a shower over the bath, with the added convenience of a second WC in the laundry.
Outside, the home is equally appealing. A lovely 6m x 6m covered deck provides an exceptional space for entertaining, overlooking a generous lawn with wonderfully soft, established grass. A wide paved driveway leads to an enormous double lock-up garage with remote access, incorporating additional workshop space — an increasingly rare and valuable feature in such a central position.
And then there is the location! From here, the best of central Bunbury is remarkably close, with the CBD, shops, cafés, schools, parks and the Inlet all within easy reach. Bunnings and the Homemaker Centre are close by. Koombana Bay is only 2.4kms away and Bunbury's Back Beach is just a short drive.
Whether you're looking for your first home, a comfortable downsizer, an easy lock-and-leave property or a character-filled home with potential for short-stay accommodation, this delightful cottage offers an opportunity to enjoy a wonderfully convenient lifestyle without compromising on charm or space. The property sits on a generous 507sqm parcel of land.
A home with genuine heart, beautiful proportions and a position that puts almost everything at your fingertips - this is one you'll forever be delighted to come home to.
