Just Perfect!
Rarely do houses of this calibre come to market in Blackheath. With this property everything possible has been included and every scenario anticipated when the extensive, and no doubt expensive, renovations were carried out.
The current owners purchased the original weatherboard cottage (Circa 1900) and enjoyed the property as a holiday home before embarking on extensive renovations in 2010.
And renovate they did!
A clever and very sympathetic extension has resulted in an expansive four bedroom home with a large eat in kitchen with a full suite of Miele appliances including a dishwasher, oven, combo steam oven and just to make sure, gas and induction cooktops!
Oh and there is even a Zip Hydro-boil for that instant hot water for the afternoon cuppa!
The master is almost a wing of its own with enormous picture windows overlooking the gardens, a walk-in robe and an extremely spacious ensuite.
All bathrooms have underfloor heating….delicious!
The other bedrooms are definitely not to be sniffed at either as they are all spacious. One has a large built-in robe and one is currently used as an office.
There is so much packed into this house, you will never be cold as there is gas-fired hydronic heating, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning , a slow-combustion wood fire and two gas hot water systems so no pesky waiting for hot water.
There is also insulation everywhere, all walls, the ceiling, under the floor and in the double garage. The garage has direct access to the house and includes a generous larder and store room!
Oh.. and there is also three phase power and a generator so the party keeps going in the event of a power outage.
Set on a wide double block, the cool climate garden sings and the best part is it can all be seen from inside through the large north-facing windows.
The gardens are also lovely, not high maintenance formal by any stretch of the imagination, more of the wandering and organic style favoured by the famous Edna Walling.
It is not just pretty either, there are extensive fruit trees including Plum, Peach, Lemon, Orange, Quince, Fig and Guava's so you have a bit of a food garden as well. There are also existing raised beds waiting to be planted with the greens of your choice.
In the garden near the ornamental creek bed and bridge is an inground concrete 65,000 litre rainwater tank which supplies the house and, if for some reason it stops raining, you can flick the whole system over to town water.
There is so much to see here and everything has been meticulously maintained, come have a look as it will be snapped up!
