Description

This beautifully restored 1870's cottage on approximately 3 acres, truly is a rare find. You will absolutely love coming home to this delightful bluestone and weatherboard residence and lovely garden. Combining contemporary stylish living with historical appeal, this property is ideal for those seeking the enormous benefits of life on an acreage.
Retaining many period features, the home has polished timber floors throughout, a cosy lounge with fireplace and three bedrooms, one currently being used as a snug. Entertainers will love the country style kitchen with Belling 900mm stove and spacious dining area.
A wood heater inserted into the original fireplace keeps the house warm, while the split system heating/cooling is rarely used as the stone walls keep the house comfortably cool in summer. 45,000 litres of stored rainwater provide all the water needed for the house and a bore is used for the garden.
A mudroom, essential in the country, leads out into a private established garden with sunny pavilion, vegetable patch, orchard, chicken and lamb rearing shed and pasture large enough for a couple of horses or other stock. The original barn style shed contains two vehicle bays, a store room, workshop and large studio with wood heater and split system, suitable for hobbies or working from home.
The property is within the rural township of Penshurst, situated an easy hour's drive to both beaches and bush.
With all the hard work done, all you need to do is come and enjoy what this historic lifestyle property has to offer.
