We guarantee you'll have never seen a property like this one! A unique slice of Australia's coal mining history, Colliery Cottage – otherwise known as Abermain No. 1 Colliery – originally housed coal mine managers and superintendents.
The circa 1903 historic, brick and tile home represents a landmark real estate opportunity, on offer for the first time in 40 years. The property is accessed via a private road and is set on 3 separate, lots of over 15 acres, fenced with 3 dams and town and tank water available.
In 2005 the residence was beautifully updated and extended resulting in a modern renovation designed to blend and flow into the older part of the home with 10-foot-high ceilings throughout.
Highlights of the five-bedroom home include multiple living rooms, a sunroom, wide-set veranda and a screened alfresco area overlooking the gardens.
There is also a saltwater pool, cabana with kitchenette, a firepit and tennis court plus there's parking and storage a-plenty. A special property like this one rarely comes along – don't miss out on it!
