Price Guide: $995,000 +
Just like people, what makes us fancy a house can come down to a handful of determinants. At first glance, we like to look at things that are visually appealing because it's uplifting to be around the beautiful.
This Cook cottage evokes all of those feel-good elements. Think red-brick exteriors offset with ash-blue painted cladding; a mature and manicured clematis wending its way around the metal balustrade of the front patio lending a pop of green to the façade; and a feature apple tree gracefully marking the season's changes.
Yet, as with any budding relationship, the true measure of worth isn't skin deep. What's on the inside counts. Here, the interior layout also shines. Open the front door and you have an uninterrupted line of sight though the lounge room and its full-height windows and rear door, to the patio and seemingly boundless backyard. It's a case of what you see is what you get. And what you get is beautiful light, bamboo flooring, a lovely calming palette and the feeling of depth and space that only comes from design that enhances the potential for an indoor/outdoor lifestyle.
A casement opening provides direct access to the meals area, light filled kitchen and delightful front porch where you can enjoy a morning coffee.
There are three peaceful bedrooms positioned to one end of the house - the second with the bonus of dual aspect. Both the neat and functional bathroom and laundry could evolve to become something special under a nurturing hand.
Equal walking distance to the Jamison Centre, the Cook shops with the treasured Little Oink café and the Bicentennial National Trail and with all of Belconnen's work, health and education options nearby, this is a great place to invest or start an exciting new chapter in your life.
The property is going to auction On Site on Saturday, 28th May at 2.00pm. Please contact Phyllis regarding registration details.
