Lovingly constructed by award winning builder Lionel Buckett from locally sourced and reclaimed Australian hardwood and designed to maximise the use of the 600.7sqm block and capture the stunning views of the city skyline, this dual-level cottage is overflowing with charm and character.

The upper level comprises two bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes, and whilst one has access to a large deck with views to the city skyline and the New Years Eve fireworks displays, the other has access to a storage loft. The heart of the home is the large and light-filled loungeroom with an abundance of large windows and high vaulted timber ceilings which coordinate perfectly with the 150 year old Tallowwood floors, reclaimed from the Newcastle Wool Stores. The front door, and all internal doors, also have a story to tell as they were salvaged from the Manly Hotel. The warmth of the timber is carried through to the kitchen and featured in the cabinetry and bench tops, alongside a corrugated iron splash back. The lower level of the home solely comprises a large master bedroom or parents retreat but, thanks to the separate access and large scale of the room, this space would be perfectly appointed for a home business or additional living space. Outside, there is plenty of yard space for kids and pets to enjoy the fresh mountain air, but there's also opportunity (STCA) to extend the home to comprise additional bedrooms or living space due to structural design.
