38A Corlette street, Cooks Hill NSW 2300

This secluded two story stand-alone cottage is tucked away on a private and quiet rear allotment on Corlette Street, one of Cooks Hills favourite streets.

It is a home that could easily house a small family or be ideal for the busy professional couple needing that extra bedroom and bathroom over most of the homes on offer in this price range. The moment you set foot on the veranda the home has a welcoming feel through wide doors into the casual living and study. At the front of the home you are greeted with high ceilings that have exposed beams, wide hardwood timber polished floors and a lot of timber work throughout the property that has a craftsman's feel about it.

There is a large bedroom on the lower level that is serviced by the downstairs bathroom where the laundry is also located. There is a separate living area at the rear which is the large open plan lounge room adjacent to the dining space and kitchen area. The kitchen features a large walk in pantry. The kitchen itself has ample bench space and features a brand new SMEG dishwasher.

One of the owners' favourite spots in the home is at the rear of the lounge room where you can catch the winter sun streaming in the stacking doors whilst curled up on the couch reading a book or watching TV. This area doubles as an outdoor entertaining area which has new merbau decking, place for two outdoor dining settings, privacy wall, feature gardens and built in seat for storage.

The front alfresco entertaining area was formerly used as an unofficial parking space and now forms a massive entertaining area. With the beach less than 5 minutes away the property also includes a hot and cold outdoor shower for those beach lovers that wish to rinse off before coming inside.

The upstairs area has two large rooms on offer, the master especially. Both feature built in robe recesses, catch great natural light, the cool summer breezes and are well insulated maintaining great warmth in the winter which some terrace homes and cottages in the area struggle to do. There is a second bathroom conveniently located on this level which is a major plus for two storey homes. The construction is freshly painted weatherboard and hebel and the craftsman's design has been kept simple but extremely effective. The large upper rooms also feature high pitched ceilings. The split system air conditioning has been strategically placed to cover both the upper and downstairs living areas.

You would be hard pressed to find another cottage in this area with such a relaxed, open and flowing beachside feel. This is one you can truly fall in love with. The land size is 133sqm excluding driveways.

The vendors may not have formally set a price guide for the property at this stage as they may wish to gain further feedback from the market before doing so. Often they are gaining further feedback from the market to ensure they are being realistic with their price guide to enhance the chance of a swift sale when they go to the full Public Media Launch

What is the price guide?
Your friendly PRDnationwide agent will generally be able to provide you with a rough price guide for the property during the preview stage of marketing and can always update you on the formal price guide once it is ready to be published if it is substantially different from the Preview guide. If you have received an e-brochure about this property as part of PRD's Red Alert system, it is likely to be in the price range you have previously specified to us.

Can I buy a property during the Preview stage of marketing?
Absolutely! In fact up to 20% of PRDnationwide's properties sell in the Preview stage of marketing, often to the exclusive members of the PRD Red Alert buyer database.(register at www.prdnewcastle.com.au/red-alert? )
