900 Berrys Creek Road, MIRBOO NORTH VIC 3871

Privately set back on an idyllic 3000m allotment, surrounded by gorgeous established trees, this quaint, turn of the century cottage is bursting with character and original features. Perfectly positioned on the edge of town, this gem is just a stone’s throw from the Primary & Secondary schools and only 2kms from the heart of Mirboo North township.

Rich in history and standing proud in all her glory after 120 years, this beautiful home started its life as the Stable masters’ residence, who attended to the draught horses on the neighbouring farm.

Beyond the front fence, a circular driveway flanked by minimal maintenance gardens greets you on arrival, supplying privacy and an unrivalled, peaceful ambience.

The charm of this historic treasure will take your breath away as you step inside from the protected front porch, with soaring ceilings, picture rails, hardwood floors and timber windows featured throughout.

Exuding warmth, two adjoining and flexible living areas welcome you at the front of the home. The first, features pendant lighting, a wood fire set in the original brick chimney to keep you cosy in the cooler months and two double hung timber windows that fill the room with natural light and frame the garden outlook.

A split system is on offer in the adjoining living area, where a now ornamental fireplace and glass sliding doors add character to the room, whilst the doors allow you to divide the rooms or utilise the space as open plan, depending on your needs.

Aspects of an original fireplace are the focal point of the kitchen, which is complete with raked ceiling, a calming colour palette, gas stove top, electric oven, and timber cabinetry.

The home affords three bedrooms, two of which are positioned at the front of the home, whilst the third is accessible via the enclosed breezeway at the back of the home.

The bathroom presents a shower over bath and a single timber vanity, whilst the toilet is separate and adjoining. The laundry is positioned near the back door, whilst wonderful stowage is provided with a storage room at the front of the home.

Lush gardens featuring ferns, maple, towering gums, pretty hedges, and a variety of fruit trees including pears, apples, apricot, cherry, grapefruit, and mandarin surround the home, providing shade and a tranquil setting, that you will never want to leave.
