The Quintessential Darlington Cottage
Stop! Don't read the rest of this listing before you call us and book a viewing for this property. If you don't, you run the risk of it being snapped up before you get to see it in person. A gorgeous cedar home, it's charming, stylish, comfortable, and just the right amount of quirky - perfect for a young couple seeking their forever home, or downsizers ready for a tree change but not willing to compromise on space. You will have company, too; the block is also home to a mob of kangaroos that love stretching out in the sun and nibbling the grass under the shady trees!
Winter is the perfect time to relax in your spacious living area, warmed by the glow of the antique fireplace, while you enjoy a cuppa and read a book plucked from the floor to ceiling shelving. Come spring, it's time to throw open the doors to the balcony entertaining area, invite friends around, and take in the pretty view over a bottle of wine. Below are garden beds where you can grow veggies which you can then prepare in the wonderfully modern kitchen. There's plenty of yard space should you choose to indulge your green thumb and add more garden beds or fruit trees.
