One of Those Homes You Just Have to See
North-facing, wonderfully sunny and filled with character, this is a home with that lovely feeling of having evolved over time, while still giving you all the space and versatility modern family life needs.
From the moment you walk in, the pressed ceilings, original Oregon pine floors, beautiful wooden-framed windows and skylights set the tone. There is an authenticity here that is hard to recreate, and the natural light makes the home feel warm and welcoming from morning onwards.
The main living area is generous and beautifully connected. A spacious lounge with a wood-burning fireplace opens into the dining area, creating an easy space for family life and entertaining. From here, the farmhouse-style kitchen becomes the heart of the home, with sunshine pouring in and the living spaces all flowing naturally together.
Then there is another surprise.
A second lounge, enclosed as a gorgeous patio, opens through folding doors onto the prettiest private garden. It is low-maintenance, wonderfully secluded and just the sort of space where you can imagine long lunches, morning coffee or friends gathering around the table.
The bedrooms are equally generous.
The north-east-facing main bedroom is light and peaceful, with built-in cupboards and a spacious full en-suite bathroom.
The second bedroom has its own beautiful full bathroom and opens directly onto a private, enclosed courtyard. Sunny, quiet and completely its own little space.
The third bedroom is currently being used as a TV lounge, but its versatility is part of the appeal. Bedroom, study, children’s space, second lounge, whatever your family needs.
And then there is the cottage.
With its own side access and currently separated from the main home for privacy, it is an incredibly useful addition. Keep it as a private guest suite, work-from-home space or income-producing opportunity, or bring it back into the home and create a four-bedroom, three-bathroom family residence.
The cottage includes its own kitchen, lounge, bedroom and bathroom, opening onto a private little courtyard.
Parking is generous too, with two garages and covered tandem parking for a third car.
South entry. North-facing living. Beautiful original features. Wonderful natural light. A private garden. A flexible cottage. And plenty of space to make the home work exactly the way you want it to.
This is one of those homes that photographs beautifully, but is even better when you walk through the front door.
Come and discover it for yourself.
