From the moment you step into this house you will be enthralled by the character and history of this lovely cottage. From the large open veranda you step through the front door into a large entrance hall. You will instantly be transformed to the old style charm of the late 1800s when this home was established. The home features all the original solid timber 4 panel doors, original ornate ceiling trays, beautiful mantel pieces in most rooms, stepped chimneys and inside the later constructed built-in cupboards you will find the old bells which would have been used to call on the maids back in the time. This approx. 21sq. home is full of old treasures and will be a delight to the creative person with plenty of potential to further develop areas of this home including the old kitchen which could be made into another room. What an opportunity to make this already Grand home into something even more special. This cottage is set on a large approx. 1467m2 block and situated in the former gold mining town of Beaconsfield.
