Originally a workers cottage with connections to the Maleny Butter Factory, this architecturally expanded home is a very special example of how opposites attract and delivers cohesion between differing architectural styles, alongside complementary material, design and colour palette choices.
Located a leisurely stroll from the heart of Maleny Township, a leafy, evergreen entrance protects the 701m2 allotment, positioned discreetly in an appealing and established street.
An architectural roofline sits unobtrusively behind the understated exterior, providing a subtle hint to the light-filled, modern, north-facing extension to the rear of the home. The result is a spectacular residence, offering generous and versatile living over two levels, blending both character and contemporary looks in one.
Attention to detail is immediately evident. A private, paved courtyard with rustic, circular firewood stackers and curvaceous timber seating surrounding an over-sized chiminea creates a welcoming entrance and a beautiful conversation area to enjoy with friends or just each other.
Once inside, the character features of the original home greet you - soaring ceilings with ornate architraves, traditional VJ walls and luxuriously treated solid timber flooring. The master and guest bedroom and delightful entry lounge complete this picture.
From here, your eyes are drawn to what lies beyond – a living and dining domain with an abundance of light and height, where hardwood timber floors flow seamlessly to an elevated and expansive veranda. Central to this beautiful space is a quality kitchen that delivers efficiency and everyday practicality. Finished with granite bench tops, ample preparation and storage space, this culinary zone effortlessly services the dining room as well as the outdoor area via a two-way granite serving bench.
The stunningly simple black and white art deco styled master bathroom sits just off the living area and features an open shower and stylish fittings.
An internal stairway leads you to the fully self-contained lower level. Complete with a separate external entrance, this ground floor retreat is a welcoming and practical area. The current owners have previously utilised this space as a successful AirBnB as well as an inviting, work from home option.
Outside, mature trees line the established gully just beyond the boundary, providing a beautiful green outlook and attract an abundance of birdlife, including pardalotes, bowerbirds and wrens. Fully utilising every inch of this allotment, handcrafted dry stone terracing and low-maintenance landscaping showcase native plantings, fruit trees and a veggie patch. You'll delight in a lawn that takes mere moments to mow, giving you your weekends back. Entertain by the fire-pit under the stars and just wait until you see The Love Shack!
