This early 1908 cottage, with a granny flat, is set on an expansive 46m frontage parcel of land, over 1/2 acre (2,885 sqm.) The property has a fascinating history; we have been told the property was once owned by William Arnott of the Arnott Biscuit Company as a summer retreat. The original traces of the full-size tennis court remain with a level playing area; a heavy old rusted court roller is a reminder of the past. The colossal sandstone retaining walls of the tennis court is impressive and would be an unimaginable feat and cost today to hand build. This very spacious timber clad cottage is just waiting for some love and attention and offers three-metre-high ceilings throughout an updated Colourbond roof and gutters. The original timber floors are under the carpets, two very generous bedrooms, the main bedroom with a walk-in robe, the study adjacent to the bedrooms could make an ideal nursery or ensuite. The rear of the cottage boasts the largest sunrooms with a glorious bush outlook. A generous 7m x4.3m lounge room with the original large fireplace just waiting to be discovered. Craftsman style timber cabinetry is featured in the formal dining. The spacious kitchen has not been used for a decade, and the large gas oven has never been used. The separate spacious granny flat needs minor updates and offers tremendous opportunities, and is ideal for weekend family guests, work from home or income. The lower level compromises a huge workshop and storage area plus a tremendous amount of future opportunity as you will also find a laundry, kitchenette, and bathroom. A double garage plus a single separate garage near the Granny flat provides a fantastic opportunity for extended family and income. The property offers quirky nick-nacks, history, and features to be discovered. Close to rail and bus, easy access on the highway/ motorway to Sydney. Moments to bushwalks and a short drive to spectacular lookouts and waterfalls Viewing is a must to appreciate.
