The classic Bluestone profile and traditional front verandah provide the first welcome and once inside this 2 bedroom character cottage, discover the original Baltic pine floors, soaring ceilings, graceful Victorian hallway arch, deep skirtings and handsome timber doors. The distinctive timber flooring features in both double bedrooms and flows into the elegant central lounge room. Striking black and while tiles introduce the rear living domain with a functional eat-in kitchen, back lobby and appealing monochrome bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles, large shower and w.c. The dining zone looks out to the rear garden with a paved, pergola-covered alfresco courtyard area, continuing with lawn, garden shed and individual plots all ready for you to plant out those vegetables and herbs.
