Last Listing description (July 2023)
Stonewood Cottage' is an iconic home located in Mooroolbarks leafy English quarter, situated close to and inspired by the famous Edna Walling village of Bickleigh Vale. Nestled within a magnificent one acre (4067m2 approx.), surrounded by huge exotic and native trees and rolling lawns, it overlooks a glorious, fully tiled swimming pool. Built in the 1920s, it was sympathetically extended in later years to create a beautiful four bedroom home with two large living areas. The extensive use of stonework and postcard views from every window bear the English landscape gardener's unmistakeable influence.
The original part of the home is dominated by the large lounge/rumpus room with exposed beams and views of outdoor greenery, where a stone fireplace and built-in bookcases complete the feeling of a grand, generational family home. In 2002 the cottage was extended by the creation of a high ceilinged atrium entry, large open plan living and adjacent dining area and rich timber kitchen with quality stone bench tops. This enchanting space features stunning brush box timber split level floors, high ceilings with chandelier style light fitting, stone and mahogany open fire place and tranquil views out over a wisteria covered east facing veranda to the sparkling inground pool. A further north facing porch caters to outdoor entertaining.
An expansive, character filled and flexible layout provides four bedrooms, each with charming highlights, all featuring lush garden outlooks. In the original part of the home, 3 bedrooms are serviced by a recently renovated spa bathroom, powder room and generous laundry, updated with cottage aesthetic but modern functionality in mind. A king-sized master bedroom extension was constructed in 2018 and provides a private, luxurious escape with oversized walk-in robe and modern ensuite with imported Italian twin vanity, heated double towel rack and door opening to a fernery, with quick access to the swimming pool. The quality pure New Zealand wool carpet adds a luxurious feel under foot and dual aspect windows fill this delightful room with light.
