Originally constructed in the early 1900s and thoughtfully extended in 2018, the property retains its cottage appeal while offering the space and design of a larger family home. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the premium fixtures and high-end finishes to the exceptional insulation and heating that make it possible to walk through the home in winter wearing shorts and a T-shirt.
Inside, the heart of the home is the renovated kitchen completed in 2020, featuring an AEG gas cooktop, oven, dishwasher, and rangehood, plus hickory hardwood floors chosen for durability and warmth. The adjoining living and dining areas flow effortlessly, while downstairs provides a separate space ideal for guests, a home office, or even additional income potential of $31,060 AUD per annum on the full-time rental market or $50,617 AUD on the short-stay accommodation market.
Comfort extends to every corner of the home with a European-designed hydronic heating system, an efficient combi boiler providing instant hot water, and double-glazed tilt-and-turn windows with built-in ventilation strips that continuously recycle fresh air. Premium insulation and integrated systems have been installed to enhance year-round efficiency and quiet living.
The ensuite, renovated in 2021, showcases a rain shower with thermostat control and a hydronic heated towel rail for a touch of luxury. Other features include reverse-cycle air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and a thoughtfully designed layout that offers both privacy and flow.
Outdoors, the landscaped gardens and lawn areas are both attractive and easy to maintain, with a Hunter automated irrigation system ensuring a set-and-forget lifestyle.
