Prepare to be enchanted by this gorgeous house, which offers a fantastic lifestyle in a tranquil setting just 5 minutes' walk to Maitland's town centre. Boasting classic cottage appeal, genuine character features, and lovely established gardens, it's a head turner both inside and out. Generously proportioned rooms, beautiful timber features and modern updates ensure this home has moved gracefully into the 21st century, with an interior and garden design that continues to reveal and inspire as you explore.
Stepping in off the classic wrap-around verandah, the home welcomes with timber floors, crisp décor, and ducted air-conditioning across a practical three-bedroom layout crowned by a versatile loft retreat with its own powder room. The open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area is kept toasty in winter with a wood combustion heater, while French doors provide effortless connection to the lush gardens. Entertain family and friends amid this blissful botanical sanctuary and impress them with your culinary skills on the woodfire pizza oven.
Dual access from the rear laneway to both a lockable carport and garage adds convenience and options. The tandem carport doubles as a covered alfresco, while the stunning air-conditioned garage/workshop with built-in shelving and mezzanine, currently utilized as a very cool retreat, would make a great home office, teen retreat or occasional guest accommodation.
Horseshoe Bend is emerging as a trendy suburb of Maitland, only a few minutes' walk or drive to the town centre. From here take an easy stroll to Maitland Regional Art Gallery to enjoy its exhibitions and café, or along the Hunter River to access great cafes, shops, restaurants, community events and live music.
