Set on a spacious corner block within walking distance to the town centre of Mount Barker is this picture-perfect character cottage. With undeniable street appeal, 10 foot ceilings and a generous extension, this home is absolutely perfect for the growing family. But be quick, a home of this calibre will not be on the market for long.
As you arrive at the home, you will be breath-taken at the charm of this gorgeous cottage. With two picture windows, a number of manicured garden beds, a stone faade and an eyelash' veranda, this property is truly something special. For the benefit of the new purchaser, the current owner has undertaken a great number of renovations; the layout of the home has been reconfigured to maximise space and functionality, quality flooring has been laid throughout, a new kitchen has been errected and a second bathroom has been added for convenience.
Upon entering the home, we arrive at a charming formal entry. To the right is a generous master bedroom which spans 3.1 by 4.4 metres. As well as a picture window, this room features a ceiling fan, a fireplace and two built-in robes for storage convenience. Directly behind this is the formal living area which benefits from a gas heater, decorative mantle, air-conditioning unit and period finishes, giving the space a feeling of grandeur. To the left of the entry is bedroom 2 and 3; both are generous in size and feature both ceiling fans and built-in robes for comfort.
To the rear of the home is a split-level section that is home to two linen presses and a sky light, allowing an abundance of light to fill the space. Leading off from the communal space is the fourth bedroom which is serviced by a bathroom that comes fully equip with a full-sized bath, shower and a separate toilet. To the absolute joy of the growing family, the home has a second bathroom with an additional toilet.
If all of this space wasn't enough, the home benefits from a modern extension that features a kitchen/dining space and an additional living/meals area. The family area spans an impressive 8.3 by 3.1 metres and is serviced by double caf-style doors that lead to the outside space. Equally as impressive is the kitchen/dining area which features ample bench and cupboard space and a large island bench - perfect for entertaining family and friends!
Like the inside of the home, the outside is just as impressive. The backyard features a double lock-up garage and 2 x 9,000 litre rainwater tanks plumbed to the house while the front yard features multiple paved alfresco areas under shady trees and carefully manicured gardens. Only 20-30 minutes drive from the city, this location is super convenient; a Wallis Cinema complex and desirable schools and colleges, both public and private along with numerous shops and eateries are just around the corner.
