SWAN COTTAGE
** UNDER OFFER - HOME OPEN CANCELLED **
Red roses behind a white picket fence, the welcome of a delightful front porch and the verdant perfection of a classic backyard give this heritage home storybook appeal. Blending the traditional charms of jarrah floors, high ceilings and airy rooms with a flowing floorplan, modern kitchen and subtle expansion, this classic Guildford cottage offers contemporary living with traditional sensibilities.
This original Guildford cottage sits confidently on a wide, tree-lined street, infused with an air of calm dignity. A sensitive modification of the characteristic ‘shotgun’ floorplan retains a sense of history and allows original features to shine. Arranged to one side of the entry is an expansive lounge/dining room humming with the quiet beauty of jewel-toned jarrah floors, high ceilings and freshly painted walls.
A large doorway opens into an updated kitchen glowing with natural light and an on-trend, neutral colour scheme. Balancing the modern amenity of stone benchtops and an integrated breakfast bar with ample room for a traditional kitchen table, this bright, airy space joins with a cosy family room which in turn opens to the large, covered deck and picture-perfect backyard. With a flowing floorplan that links living spaces to the alfresco entertaining area, indoor-outdoor living is effortless.
An utterly enchanting cottage, rich with heritage charm and waiting for the next chapter in its long history, there is much to love here. Steps from the train station, a short walk to the local café strip and Guildford Grammar, this property boasts a neighbourhood playground and excellent links to the city and beyond.
