Nestled just moments from the heart of the highly sought after and vibrant Melbourne village, an exquisite Grade 2 listed Georgian cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinguished residence. Sympathetically restored to preserve its rich heritage, the property effortlessly blends period charm with contemporary design.

The cottage offers a well proportioned and practical layout that suits modern living whilst retaining its period character. A bright entrance hall leads to a cloakroom with built in storage, a utility room, and walk in pantry. The kitchen is also accessed through the utility and opens directly onto the dining room, which features elegant Georgian style doors that frame attractive views onto the garden. The lounge is both spacious and inviting, with rustic beam and period fireplace offering a central focal point to the room. To the rear of the property is a secondary entrance providing access between the lounge and dining room, with wide staircase leading to the first floor.

The first floor offers two well proportioned double bedrooms, both featuring original fireplaces and fitted wardrobes. Positioned at the rear of the property, each room enjoys pleasant views over the garden. A step up leads you to a secondary generous landing located to the front of the cottage, this bright open space benefits from excellent natural light and includes a built in storage cupboard. From here, you’ll find access to the third bedroom and the family bathroom.

The south-east facing garden is beautifully designed and truly private. A picturesque walled cottage courtyard garden, a peaceful and private outdoor space, offering raised beds flanked with mature cottage garden planting. The standout feature is a magnificent established Wisteria which climbs across the facade and over the stunning Georgian style French doors making a striking impression during bloom. Discretely low maintenance yet full of charm, the garden includes a water feature, outside lighting, pergola, paved patio and timber storage.
