4 Ailsa Street Mount Victoria

Have you ever dreamt of downsizing without compromising the pleasures of lovely living spaces and a beautiful garden? If you are not already an advocate of how perfect small homes can be then - get ready!, this gorgeous little cottage has a completely captivating charm. The home is built on a gently sloping, treed block on a quiet street, within close proximity to all of Mt Victoria's quaint shops, parks and amenities, plus the spectacular bushwalks and climbing spots overlooking the Kanimbla Valley nearby. Enjoy this haven of tranquillity without having to forgo a great coffee, the latest films at Mt Vic Flicks, a primary school, even a public tennis court - all within walking distance. The house has everything, but in a manageable size. To the front is a lovely, shaded bullnose veranda, a perfect nook for reading and relaxing, sheltered by mature banksias. The living/dining/kitchen room has a high sloped ceiling and opens out through french doors to a sunny deck that floods with all year sun. There are two bedrooms and a compact bathroom/laundry. The garden is a special delight - a low maintenance, landscaped 'rain garden', designed to slow down natural stormwater run-off in stone rivulets that sustains a planting of over 40 tree ferns. The garden also features a raised, high yielding veggie patch in the sunniest spot of the garden, three cherry trees, numerous plums- plus mature espaliered fruiting trees: apple, pears and a nashi. The most charming tree cubby imaginable straddles two trunks of a backyard eucalypt. This little charmer has it all with nothing to do but relax and enjoy its loveliness.
