10 Grose Street, Blackheath NSW 2785

Enter through an arbour in the picket fence to this truly delightful enclave, a weatherboard cutie nestled in an enchanting cottage-style garden. This is a property that has all the advantages of a relatively new build (1990s), but with the complete charm of a 19th century Blue Mountains cottage. Warm air vented to the bedrooms from the living room fire and a very tidy kitchen and bathroom are concessions to the new - a bull-nose veranda, high ceilings and quaint sash windows are nods to the delight of the cottages of yesteryear. A north facing open-plan living room and kitchen invites sunshine to flood in through large windows - the beautiful, cosy room spilling out to a covered outdoor patio through French doors. Two charming bedrooms with built-in cupboards and a combined laundry/bathroom complete the floorplan.
The level, fully fenced garden is a year-round delight, with shade and meandering pathways and sunny patches for roses and herbs. Several mature trees - conifers and deciduous - pre-date the build, providing a wonderful structure and perpetual colour and interest. Judicious plantings screen from neighbours and incorporate borrowed views from surrounding gardens. There is so much to appreciate in its layout.
Within a stroll of the spectacular escarpments and bushwalks of the National Park, this property is also ideally positioned in one of Blackheath's most lovely leafy streets.
