At the rear of the home is an expansive open plan living / family room with its own bathroom, kitchenette and external access to the rear verandah and deck. This area can also be closed off from the rest of the home making it a versatile option as a work from home space, teenage retreat, or separate living quarters for in-laws or guest accommodation.
Outside, the sprawling rear garden features gorgeous stone walls, a bridge over a winter creek plus sun dappled lawn areas surrounded by leafy trees and shrubs with bright and cheerful sunflowers providing bursts of colour.
Completing this package is vehicle access to the carport and 5 x 5.5 shed with concrete flooring and power, a cute cubby that children will love and use when they are playing hide and seek in the back garden, wood and garden shed plus a chook house for the feathered friends.
Enjoy this gorgeous cottage, sprawl out on the dappled sun lawns and take advantage of the perfectly positioned location.
