This delightful cottage home sits proudly high on the hill in the Bayswater Village precinct. The unique early century façade and interior period features transport you back to a time when these cottage style homes were built and common to this location. They are now a sought-after abode for a variety of home buyers wanting to stamp their own individual personality on the home through further internal and external enhancements. The home's entry impresses with red recycled brick paving used for on-site parking which rests beside the terraced garden level with native shrubs and garden beds circling the decorative feature paving and façade. The front security screen door and original 4 panel Oregon colonial entry door open up to expose enticing period features such as high ceilings, wooden floorboards, fireplaces, pressed metal ceilings and walls and colonial windows and doors, typical of the early 1900's.The spacious primary bedroom sits at the front of the home and enjoys garden views and features an ornate fireplace mantle-piece and sits adjacent to the generous sized secondary bedroom which sits opposite the hallway.Further along, the hallway opens out to a larger space for central access to the separate dining room with pressed metal ceiling and walls and with an old Meters stove as a decorative feature.
