23 Rawson Parade is a long way from being your average 3 bedroom house. If you’re looking for character, the letterbox is the first hint of what’s to come. ‘Cricklewood Cottage’ still has the old floorboards and high ceilings of a 1940s home. But since then, certain creature comforts have been added: ducted central heating; a ceiling fan; indoor plumbing; a gas stove and electric oven; and a two drawer dishwasher. There are two spacious bedrooms in the main house and a detached third bedroom with ensuite. It could equally be guest accommodation or a work from home office.Just outside is something the original occupants could never have even imagined: a genuine Italian wood-fired pizza oven.Further down the yard, there is a brilliantly versatile ‘urban cave’. This could be your office, or studio, a rumpus room, or visitor space. And just a metre or so away is a cubby house that has been cleverly converted into a compact bathroom!There are a couple of wooden storage sheds, an established garden, two rainwater tanks, a secure chook house, small orchard and veggie patch and a back gate that opens onto the bush beyond.So, you see, the delightful cosy, character cottage is just half the attraction of the entire property. The added extras make the whole a very attractive package.All of this within a few minutes drive to Leura village, a well-regarded school and transport.As well as the popular walking tracks of Mt Hay.How could you resist?Features:Ducted central heating Ceiling fan Gas stove and electric oven Two drawer dishwasherStorage shedsSeparate studioWell maintained garden Deep backyardBacks onto bushLand size: 1,565 sqmsCouncil rates: $498.50 pqCouncil zoning: C4 – Environmental Living & C2 – Environmental ConservationRental potential: Around $650.00 per week
