Welcome to Cooringle Cottage, a truly unique property where history, character, and contemporary living combine. Built in 1878 as the Nubba PS principal's residence, this beautifully renovated Victorian home sits proudly elevated on 11 acres in the rolling green hills of the picturesque Hilltops region.
From the moment you arrive, the charm of the home will captivate you. Period character includes high ceilings, original fireplaces, polished floorboards and French doors. At the heart of the home is open-plan kitchen, living, and dining, warmed by a wood-fired heater. There are four bedrooms, including the main with a walk-in robe and the others with built-ins. The north-facing verandah is the perfect place to take in views of the surrounding valley.
The gardens and grounds are every bit as special. To the front, a formal garden with historic fountain creates a stately first impression. To the rear, a patio, cubby house, and expansive lawn provide for entertaining and play. The inground mineral pool, framed by ornamental pear trees, hosts a pool house overlooking the garden and valley. A fire pit with bridge timber seating offers another space to enjoy this stunning setting.
A fully established, irrigated orchard boasts an abundance of fruit, including cherries, apples, peaches, berries, grapes, apricots and more. A vegetable garden with greenhouse, and chicken coop allow for self-sufficiency, with town water and six substantial water tanks.
In addition to the main residence, there are two further accommodation options. A charming two-bedroom weatherboard cottage sits beneath a century-old Morton Bay fig tree, with French doors opening to a lawned terrace bathed in morning sun. This is ideal for extended family or could be used as an income-generating B&B. There is also an architect-designed one-bedroom studio, positioned to capture stunning views of Mount Bobbara and the Brindabella Ranges and the distant trains winding through. With its contemporary design, it is perfect as a work-from-home space or guest accommodation.
Ideally located just 20 minutes from Young and Cootamundra, under two hours from Canberra, and less than four hours from Sydney, this property offers easy access to regional centres and cities. With its combination of heritage charm, contemporary living, stunning gardens, and versatile accommodation, this is a rare opportunity to secure a property that is as rich in history as it is in lifestyle options.
