THE STORY.... Where a classic Queanbeyan cottage meets modern day living....

For two glorious decades, Nan called this cozy cottage-style abode 'home' - a residence where the charm of yesteryear harmoniously blended with the conveniences of modern living. Nestled at the front of a small complex of townhouses, this cottage exudes warmth, standing as a testament to time on a quiet street with amiable neighbours.

Perfectly positioned in a sought after location with renowned primary and high schools, and the vibrant pulse of parks and playgrounds, only a stone's throw away.

The strategic location was a canvas for Nan's daily life - a short stroll to a bus stop, for public transport, and Riverside Plaza within walking distance, hosting an abundance of local shops and eateries. The proximity to Queanbeyan Showground also added a dash of community flavour, hosting events that punctuated the seasons with markets and fairs alike.

As you approach, the cottage charm radiates through the quaint wrap-around porch and the glow of the porch lights. Inside, an open-plan living space and formal dining reveals ornate details from the original windows to the spectacular crown moulding.

A slow-combustion wood fireplace, set apart by it's fantastic brick feature wall, and a Mitsubishi Electric split system air conditioner, create a cozy and contemporary ambiance, inviting you into this space with a warm welcome.

Natural light dances throughout, guiding the way into the centrally located kitchen, offering a collection of culinary conveniences with Westinghouse Silhouette Series gas appliances, set apart by a stylish wrap-around splashback.

Two cozy bedrooms, adorned with brand new carpet, cradle comfort - offering a private oasis to rest and recharge. The sizeable main bathroom boasts a sanctuary of indulgence, showcasing an oversized shower, frosted windows for added privacy, and stunning diagonal beadboard walls.

Outside, a generous undercover space beckons for gatherings, providing the perfect spot to unwind and entertain in the fresh air, protected from the elements.

Having been the heart of Nan's life for two decades, baring witness to many family gatherings and milestones, her humble cottage underwent recent enhancements to prepare it for its next chapter. Fresh paint, brand new carpets and a renovated bathroom and kitchen breathed new life into this residence.

As Nan moves on, to live out her golden years at a community-centric retirement village, the memories embedded within these walls become a part of this cottage's legacy. Creating a fantastic opportunity for a first-time homebuyer, a downsizer or an astute investor, to embrace the charm, warmth, and history that this cottage has to offer.
