20 Mernda Road, Olinda VIC 3788

Poised behind a lovely hedged and gated entrance, Magnolia Cottage was proudly purchased as a first home by a professional couple who now retreat here to write, garden or just relax under the impressive magnolias. It is as much an entertainer’s weekender as it is a serene understated hills cottage, providing you with an opportunity to escape the hustle of city life.

It boasts one of the finest gardens in the area. With an impressive variety of plants from the magnificent maples, copper beeches and tree ferns to garden beds that automatically display carpets of cyclamen, crocus, hellebores, peonies and trout lilies and you don’t even have to lift a finger.

The large return veranda / decking area provides outdoor living at its finest and while the home offers a fantastic living area, it could easily be reconfigured including a third bedroom, second bathroom and boot room under the existing roofline.

With strong emphasis on space and functionality, the home is appointed with:
• Large sitting / dining room with French doors
• Separate sunroom / study
• 2 queen sized bedrooms
• Country kitchen with appliance / benchtop updates
• Single garage under the roofline
• Storage shedding / dog enclosure
• Space for further shedding / carport
