Tucked away behind the front gate, and surrounded by a beautifully established cottage garden, this charming 1939 cottage is a private hills retreat offering valley views, flexible family living, a luxury family bathroom and a sparkling pool - all wrapped in warmth, character and timeless appeal.
Set at the top of Glenalta, its elevated position captures hills outlooks while providing a sense of seclusion. Thoughtfully updated over time, it delivers immediate comfort with scope to further personalise if desired, in a location that offers lifestyle, privacy and convenience.
The home unfolds across two well-considered levels. Upstairs, three bedrooms all include built-in robes, two enjoying garden outlooks. The master bedroom is complemented by an updated ensuite, while a beautifully appointed family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms. Light-filled living and dining spaces are anchored by a combustion fireplace and leafy views, creating a warm and welcoming heart of the home. The updated kitchen is well equipped with a gas cooktop, large oven, dishwasher, breakfast bar and servery windows that open to the outdoor entertaining area.
Downstairs, a flexible retreat with its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and cellar provides excellent versatility - ideal for extended family, a teenage retreat, or short-term rental with separate access.
Designed for relaxed hills living, the outdoor spaces are a true highlight. The entertaining deck overlooks the sparkling swimming pool and established gardens, creating a private setting for gatherings or quiet afternoons. The garden provides multiple fruit trees and the cottage-style landscaping enhances the sense of calm and connection to nature, while a 9.25kW solar system supports an energy-efficient lifestyle.
This is a home full of character and comfort, offering a lifestyle you can't beat. It's the perfect balance of hills living and everyday convenience…make this your next chapter!
