Last Listing description (October 2019)

Poised behind a lovely hedged and gated entrance, Magnolia Cottage was proudly purchased as a first home by a professional couple who now retreat here to write, garden or just relax under the impressive magnolias. It is as much an entertainers weekender as it is a serene understated hills cottage, providing you with an opportunity to escape the hustle of city life.

It boasts one of the finest gardens in the area. With an impressive variety of plants from the magnificent maples, copper beeches and tree ferns to garden beds that automatically display carpets of cyclamen, crocus, hellebores, peonies and trout lilies and you dont even have to lift a finger.

The large return veranda / decking area provides outdoor living at its finest and while the home offers a fantastic living area, it could easily be reconfigured including a third bedroom, second bathroom and boot room under the existing roofline.

With strong emphasis on space and functionality, the home is appointed with:
Large sitting / dining room with French doors
Separate sunroom / study
2 queen sized bedrooms
Country kitchen with appliance / benchtop updates
Single garage under the roofline
Storage shedding / dog enclosure
Space for further shedding / carport
European wood burner
Views to the garden from all rooms
Magnificent woodlands garden
Mini Orchard and Vegie garden
