5 Wilshire Street, Berrima NSW 2577

OPEN HOUSE ON THURSDAY, 11 APRIL @ 11.30am FOR 45 MINUTES

This historic sandstone cottage radiates character and has been lovingly and sympathetically restored. A pretty cottage garden featuring an antique garden lantern welcomes you onto a deep classic iron-roofed verandah and into an impressive wide central timber-floored hallway that leads to two spacious bedrooms, sitting room and dining room all featuring open fireplaces surrounded by original timber mantels. Sandstone hearths, 10ft. ceilings, picture rails, timber floors, high skirtings and tall deep sash windows reveal stamps of its era.

The modernised character kitchen features wood burning Esse cooker and a Falcon gas cooker, floor to ceiling cabinetry and butler's style porcelain sink. Both bathrooms have been renovated with well-matched features.

A colonial-style, enclosed timber breezeway connects the two original sandstone buildings to make a charming, light-filled casual dining/sitting space that opens out to the garden and the weathered convict stone paving terrace, all lightly shaded by a sprawling pine tree.

The property is located in a quiet cul-de-sac within the village, easy level walk to Berrima’s cafes and shops and only steps to the banks of the beautiful Wingecarribee River. This home is a perfect downsizer, weekender, or has potential for great holiday rental income (STCA).
