Property ID: #L37621676
A modest, well-preserved timber cottage that retains authentic period details — timber floorboards, decorative cornices and textured glazing — but it’s a conventional, vernacular house rather than an original architect-designed statement. Good craftsmanship and proportion give it charm and heritage character, though it lacks the distinctive form or innovation to rate highly on originality or uniqueness.
