Nestled on a lush, leafy 1038sqm block, this beautifully preserved 1880s stone cottage, is a rare find that offers an abundance of charm and character. Located on the edge of town, the property is surrounded by tranquil trees, creating a calming sanctuary that's as close to nature as it is to all local amenities.
As you approach, the heritage-style front veranda and classic 1900s iron rail fence immediately draw you in, framing the home's inviting and timeless exterior. Inside, you'll find a perfect blend of original stone walls, warm timber accents, and tasteful modern finishes – all contributing to the cottage's unique and welcoming atmosphere.
The heart of the home is its spacious, light-filled central hall, which leads to two generous, country-sized bedrooms, each with its own period fireplace. The third bedroom, with its large picture windows, overlooks the enchanting rear garden and paved pergola area.
The kitchen and dining area exude a relaxed country vibe, with rich wood cabinetry and classic black-and-white tiled floors. A picture window in the dining area offers views of the side garden, making every meal feel like an occasion. Adjoining the kitchen, the lounge features a stunning leadlight window that bathes the room in natural light – perfect for winding down on quiet evenings.
Even the laundry is a joy, with its peaceful garden view and beautiful finish making washing day feel less like a chore. The bathroom offers a touch of luxury, with a deep bath, separate shower, and WC, making it the perfect retreat at the end of the day.
Outside, the rear verandah is a wonderful spot for entertaining, with book leaf stone retaining walls creating a lovely backdrop. For those messy garden days, there's even a convenient outdoor toilet. The garden is a haven to explore with a new patch of lawn and gravel paths leading to raised veggie beds. Enjoy the shade of a mature lemon tree, where you can harvest fresh produce and enjoy the fruits of your gardening adventures.
Living in the hills is addictive. It's a place where a true sense of community awaits, with friendly locals, charming cafes, and plenty of opportunities for leisurely chats. Known affectionately as "Loby" by its residents, this is a town that may quickly feel like home.
