8 Garthfield Avenue, Cygnet TAS 7112

Located up a quaint and peaceful country lane within walking distance from the center of the vibrant village of Cygnet, this gorgeous cottage sits amongst 1047m2 of its own private, natural setting. There is a council reserve on one side, trees over the road, and cows over the back. A lovely and unique natural feature is the Agnes Rivulet that forms part of the property's boundary, attracting wildlife and adding great appeal to the back garden.

The cottage has been beautifully re-imagined through a recent renovation, achieving a wonderful harmony between history and the present. Gorgeous period features include the timber floorboards that run throughout the entire home, the high ceilings and the charming front door. The lounge is more open plan now and has a huge picture window letting plenty of natural light into the room as well as creating an almost theatrical scene. The dramatic, modern light fitting, the restored tongue and groove ceiling and the sandstone hearth complete the look perfectly.

Through to the kitchen, the drama continues with black on black cupboards, appliances, bench tops and splash-back. Maybe bold, but really works, set off against the timber floors and neutral grey walls. Just beautiful. From here, double doors open out to the covered rear patio, seamlessly connecting the outside with the inside. This overlooks the entire garden where the eye is drawn down the winding path to the majestic Blue Gum at the back. Enjoying complete privacy within the natural surrounds, this is a perfect place to sit back with a wine or a cup of coffee and a good book or simply observe.

The bedrooms are generous in size and have a wonderful homely, welcoming feel. The main bedroom has built-in robes. Currently set up as a 2-bedroom option with a formal dining room, you could make it a 3-bedroom option if required. This extra room is accessed from the main living area via double doors and works great as the formal dining. A large picture window overlooks the reserve and captures the afternoon sun flooding the space with natural light and warmth.

The garden is an easy-care hybrid of native and cottage vegetation. The shed up the back provides great storage or could be your workshop or art studio overlooking the rivulet and the surrounding rural landscape. Just up the lane is a local art gallery within a gorgeous old barn style shed and within minutes on foot, you are in the middle of the cultural center of Cygnet. Please contact us for further information or to arrange a private viewing that is sure to impress.
