Miles View House is a quintessential gorgeous character cottage, sitting proudly on Graham Road at the highest point of Gooseberry Hill. Adoringly maintained to the uppermost standard, this home is a dream come true for lovers of romance with swaying treetops, the warble of native birds and the feeling of living somewhere truly special.
The original decorative led light front door gives an inkling of what is to come - step through to the formal entry way and be greeted with the warmth of traditional floorboards underfoot. This home features solid floorboards throughout the top level, as well as solid Jarrah door and window frames. High ceilings make for cool summers while decorative ceiling roses add a touch of class to the main dining area. On the upper floor you will find four bedrooms each with their own features; a double room with embossed, anaglypta wallpaper and views with coastal glimpses; a king room with walk in robe, treetop views and option to be converted to theatre room; a queen room with views over the cottage gardens and finally, a double room which is currently used as an office but could easily be a bedroom depending on your needs.
The country kitchen is fully equipped for cooking up a feast with walk-in pantry, plenty of storage with solid Tasmanian oak fronted cabinets and two cookers combined to have 8 burners, two grills and two ovens (perfect to feed the masses!). The kitchen also features its own split-system air-conditioning unit so Christmas baking is a breeze during our hot months. French double doors open from the kitchen onto a gorgeous secluded provincial-style courtyard with kitchen garden featuring fresh herbs. The combined dining and sitting room feature wood panelling and ceiling roses, whilst also having access to the wrap-around timber veranda. The veranda is often referred to as the viewing deck as when you sit out here, among the swaying treetops, you can look across the top of the escarpment and glimpse the coast. The upper floor also hosts a neat and tidy family bathroom with timber features, a separate toilet with waterwise basin and the laundry room. A large storage room is located off the formal entry, perfect for coats and winter clothes in the cooler months.
Heading down the solid jarrah staircase to the lower level you will find a true jewel for any couple - a sweet retreat just for you! A private sitting area featuring a Regency gas log fireplace, access to your own secluded deck and a main bedroom with new ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Imagine morning views across the treetops from bed, curling up in your favourite armchair by the fire after a long day and a sunset tipple with your partner... a perfect use of this space. For those wine connoisseurs out there, the storage room under the staircase could easily be converted to a fantastic wine cellar!
Outdoors there are beautiful, structured cottage gardens with absolutely no landscaping work needed. A double garage with electronic roller door offers security and peace of mind for your vehicles, as well as a full security system in the house itself. Taking advantage of the high position, the views from the deck and veranda are glorious in all seasons and could easily host any parties of large family gatherings. The soft, romantic glow of twilight fills the windows of an evening and will certainly please any family or couple who are looking for the touch of charisma in their home.
