Step back in time with this original two-bedroom cottage built in the early 1900s. Brimming with character the 108 m² home sits on a peaceful 1,716 m² section surrounded by bird song, fruit trees and the gentle sound of a nearby creek. While offered as is, where is due to its age and limited records, this property holds undeniable potential - whether you’re looking to restore a piece of the past or secure a charming and affordable holiday base on the Coast.
Inside, the home features open-plan living warmed by a multi-fuel fire on wetback, a practical kitchen and dining area, separate laundry and toilet, plus both shower and bath. Outdoors, an original butcher’s shop has been repurposed as a studio or workshop space, complemented by a double garage, carport and additional shedding.
The gardens are a true delight, blending old-world charm with everyday practicality. A magnificent century-old bay tree anchors the property, joined by a graceful Magnolia Stellata, mature pigeonwood and a variety of fruit trees that burst with seasonal colour. There’s plenty of space for chickens to scratch, dogs to roam and children to explore. All within a peaceful, private setting alive with birdsong.
