30 Oxley Drive, Mittagong NSW 2575

On the market for the first time in 14 years, this vintage four-bedroom, two-bathroom weatherboard cottage is a diamond in the rough.

Originally built for Returned Service Army officers in the 1950’s, it exudes charm and has potential with a capital P! Offering 11ft ceilings downstairs, there are three double bedrooms, a bathroom and living/dining/kitchen on this level. Upstairs a master retreat plus study area allows for a versatile and flexible layout.

The north-east facing garden is an oasis of calm, with the shade of a 70-year old apple tree providing the perfect spot for a picnic or a children’s camp-out.

There’s no denying this old-world lady needs a spit and polish, but the opportunity for renovation is palpable. With such good bones, it’s all here:

- 11ft ceilings downstairs

- 3 double bedrooms downstairs ….. or

- Potential for kids’ playroom/TV room

- Large master bedroom with ensuite and retreat/study

- Country kitchen with solid timber hardwood benches

- Commercial gas oven and hob

- Rinnai instant gas hot water system

- Programmable built gas heater in lounge heats up the whole house

- Desirable street appeal

- Front and rear verandahs

- Tremendous potential to extend into the large back garden (STCA)

- Potential to take advantage of all the unrealised possibilities

If the walls could talk, what a story they’d tell!
