The cottages front façade showcases exquisite stonework with classic brick accents and Victorian style window surrounds, lending a timeless appeal. Modern amenities include double-glazed windows, an electric vehicle charger, and a comprehensive security system with motion sensors for added peace of mind.
Entering through the original cottages front living room, you will notice high ceilings and one of the beautifully reconditioned cast iron fireplaces from the late 1800s. To the right, a flexible room serves as either a study or additional bedroom, adjacent to a bright, southeast facing bedroom with natural light streaming in from above. This floor also features a fully equipped bathroom with a walk in shower and a linen closet. This space has the potential for conversion into a self contained one bedroom suite, ideal for guests or additional living flexibility. The space is unified by oak flooring, ample light from dual aspect windows, and three beautiful antique fireplaces, each adding warmth and character.
A few steps up the finely crafted solid oak staircase, the master bedroom awaits with an open concept layout. This luxurious space includes a freestanding bathtub, a walk in shower with stunning views of Sugarloaf Mountain and the serene rear garden, a separate WC, ample wardrobe space, and striking pitched ceilings for an airy, expansive feel.
The lower level of the east wing houses two additional bedrooms, one facing the front, the other with direct access to the rear garden with a recently renovated bathroom between them. The east wing also features a large walk in pantry that opens to the garden. Adjacent to this space is a functional room that includes a spacious laundry area, complete with a water tank and a newly installed pellet stove.
At the heart of the cottage is a magnificent open plan kitchen, living, and dining area, a true entertainer’s dream.

Outside, the garden is a private oasis featuring mature fruit trees, including plum, apple, and pear, along with a tranquil pond and meandering stream.
