LAND:
1086 m2. Large corner allotment (which may be subdividable STCC) located in the peaceful township of Birdwood, only 30 minutes from Tea Tree Gully. A short stroll to the local shopping centre or to the Birdwood Primary or High Schools. Lovely
garden setting with many advanced trees gives a very relaxed feel. The corner position allows easy access to the large rear yard, which has plenty of room for kids to play and to plant a huge vegetable garden.

RESIDENCE:
The current residents are only the second proud owners of this c1940s cottage. They have been meticulous in the manner in which they have restored the original cottage back to its former glory, and taken particular care to maintain its character both inside and out. The heritage style timber cladding of the original cottage had also been carried over to the large extension using Jarrah timber. The extension has been carefully designed and constructed to blend and enhance the old world charm. The
original verandah lines have also been duplicated for the
extension, which continue the character. The home has been completely re-wired and the up to date electrical fuse box is a far cry from the bakelite fuses of yesteryear. The home has also been completely re-roofed with Coloorbond iron and is fully
insulated. Entering the home, the warmth of polished timber floors is obvious. High 9ft ceilings in the original section of the cottage give a spacious feel. It always seems logical that the kitchen is the first port of call to a home and it is easy to see why this would be the centre of conversation while watching the cook prepare a meal. Quality timber cupboards create a warm feel and a built-in Italian Technika 900mm wide quality gas/electric
burner/oven fits beautifully in the original fireplace
surrounded by the original mantel piece. The kitchen opens via a wider than double opening into the formal dining area, again
having a warm feel ready for dinner parties. There is also a
Fujitsu Inverter reverse cycle, wall, split air conditioner which is very effective in providing heating/cooling for the main cottage. Located adjacent to the dining room is the main bathroom with shower, vanity and a separate toilet with dual access from the bathroom or the hallway. The bathroom also is dual purpose
containing laundry facilities. The main bedroom located in the original cottage also has access to an area which can be used as either a walk in robe or as an office area. The second bedroom has a beautiful, authentic, original fireplace which can be used on chilly, nights.
From the dining room, there are three steps which lead to the extension, a very impressive large entertaining room that could be used as a studio or a parents retreat. There is room to create a 3rd bedroom in this section, which could connect to the 2nd
bathroom here, which has a shower and vanity; making it the ensuite. Another Fujitsu Inverter reverse cycle, wall, split air
conditioner in this section provides heating or cooling at the push of a button. The exposed timber beams in the high ceiling certainly give a light and spacious feel for this casual living area. Once again the windows and the timber battens on the walls blend with the original cottage. Double timber French Doors open onto a timber deck/landing, where an evening wine can be
consumed or the morning coffee enjoyed whilst overlooking or stepping down to the large rear yard.

IMPROVEMENTS:
A pergola area attached to the rear of the home with access to the kitchen makes a lovely barbecue outdoor living area. 20ft x 20ft Colorbond double garage, with concrete floor and power ,
provides the ideal workshop or car garage. There is a double carport, with a gable roof, connected to the front of the garage, providing undercover parking for 2 vehicles so with the double garage there is undercover parking for 4 vehicles. 2 x 4000
gallon poly rainwater tanks are connected to the house and are plumbed via a pressure pump to the home making it self
sufficient on rainwater. There is also a smaller poly tank
connected to the garage. A beautiful large rear yard has some nice shady trees and has also been planted with trees that are well underway to providing more shady areas.
