Some homes feel instantly familiar - the kind that signal comfort, warmth, and the promise of new memories from the moment you arrive at the charming white picket fence. Overflowing with 1940s character - original sash windows, hardwood floors, high ceilings, cornices, and picture rails - this weatherboard sweetheart offers cosy authenticity with a practical and family-friendly layout.
Inside, there’s a sense of calm and flow that encourages slow living. The front lounge embraces winter evenings with an open fireplace, crackling away against the backdrop of polished timber and heritage detailing. The chic kitchen ties old and new together beautifully, with a 900mm stainless-steel cooker, and breakfast bar for casual eats. The home’s second living zone is an airy, light-filled space with bifold doors that open fully to the all-season deck.
This deck really is the Sunday sanctuary: covered for year-round alfresco dining, bird listening, hot cuppas, and barefoot lounging. Step down to deep green lawn shaded by established trees - the perfect playground for little legs, dogs, cartwheels, backyard cricket, or simply stargazing after dark. There are veggie patches along the side ready for tomatoes, herbs, and edible dreams, plus a bungalow at the rear offering brilliant flexibility: teen hangout, studio space, hobby den, home office - even a quiet winter reading room with a combustion wood fire.
Accommodation includes three well-positioned bedrooms, with the master peacefully placed at the front. The bathroom is functional and honest - completely serviceable now and totally makeover-ready when the creative itch strikes.
And the lifestyle? This location really knows how to deliver. You’re a short stroll to Montrose Village for coffee, supplies, parks, and weekend ambling. Or take an easy 10-minute walk via the back streets to the Adventure Playground, followed by a treat from Hahndorf’s Fine Chocolates - a family ritual in the making.
This home may be compact, but the block is supersized, with heart, heritage, and the kind of yard that invites outdoor living.
