Storybook Cottage
Meaning: a gentle country escape filled with timeless charm
FRESH
There’s a certain kind of calm you only find in the countryside. This weatherboard cottage sits right in the middle of it - a peaceful, old-world retreat just outside the city, where life slows down the moment you pull into the drive. It’s full of character from top to toe, with timber floors, original windows, and a collection of mismatched doors and handles that feel like a nod to its long, lived-in story.
The home itself is warm, welcoming, and quietly confident. Morning coffee tastes better on the classic verandah, and evenings naturally drift out to the deck overlooking open farmland. The outlook is uninterrupted and honest - rolling paddocks, open skies, and that soft country silence you can’t fake.
If you’ve been craving a retreat with soul, character, and serenity, this cottage is exactly the place that lets you escape - without leaving real life behind.

BOLD
The land is mostly flat, versatile, and ready for whatever lifestyle you have in mind: horses, cattle, sheep, pets, paddocks, or simply space to breathe. It’s an easy kind of living here. Real, grounded, and miles away from the rush of everyday life, yet close enough that the city is still within reach when you need it.
