Apple Trees and Happiness
This home needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. We know that you've already looked at the photos and think But Helen and Aaron, I already think it's beautiful. Trust us on this. You can see photos of the beautiful ceiling roses, the vanity made of pressed tin, the apple tree and sunny deck. There's the lovely kitchen and bathroom, the period light fixtures and garden. But you can't feel the sense of welcome that you will get when you drive onto the property.
Delicate little accents that make this house unique. Timeworn flagstones lead to the first structure ever on this land, a shepherd's cottage.. To your left is a very spacious out workshop and to your right is the gem of the land, the house itself.
Yesteryear charm pervades every room. The kitchen exudes an idyllic farmhouse appearance (think of the apple pies you could bake). Two original cold store pantries in place, giving you plenty of storage. This is a pleasant space for cooking without cutting the cook off from the rest of the family. The dining area is warmed by a freestanding woodheater.
The gracious drawing room will fit the biggest of lounge suites and accommodates modern appliances such as television etc without losing the mantelpiece or any of its golden days charm for that matter.
Each of the super large three bedrooms are carpeted, have two built in wardrobes and an open fireplace each with mantelpiece. The first bedroom faces north and so it catches the sun in winter while being cool in summer. It has a private outlook and has a peaceful, dreamy quality to it.
The second bedroom has bright, white walls, a most beautiful ceiling rose and a darling little sunroom. With white painted floorboards and breezy lace curtains, this room abounds with shabby chic allure.
The third, master bedroom has a bay window. North-east facing, it looks out onto the apple tree, land and hills. This is a private sanctuary, made for dreaming and planning and spending time together as a couple.
The study could be a fourth bedroom. Double French doors open onto a spacious north facing deck, perfect for bbqs, family get togethers or just lazing on with a glass of wine in your hand while the bees buzz around your lovely garden and you doze in the sun.
The bathroom has been fully renovated and has big shower, gorgeous vanity, spare toilet and plenty of space. A powder room off the laundry is also a welcome addition.
Set on a level 1.5 acres, there's plenty of room for whatever outdoor activity you please Big smiles and welcome arms are sure to greet you when you come home to your family in this lovingly maintained farmhouse.
Be sure to book your private inspection with Helen or Aaron at your earliest convenience!
