If you are searching for a truly special property where you can raise your family in a home brimming with character and stories, a place where history whispers on the breeze, and the future is waiting to be written, you must visit "Two Oaks". This utterly delightful home sits prettily with its pale grey boards and tin roof amidst the sprawling greenery and towering timbers for which Darlington is well-known. Inside is a treasure trove of character-filled details: Tassie oak floors flow seamlessly throughout the home, echoing the rich tones of the Jarrah Dado in the formal lounge and perfectly complementing the elegant, white-painted timber French doors you can throw open to usher in the afternoon breeze.
Three good-sized bedrooms offer tranquil retreats while fourth and fifth bedrooms can come from the study or even the 36 square metre loft above the carport to suit the ages of children. These latter two rooms also provide a dedicated space for work, life admin, or creative pursuits. And while you're enjoying the kind of workmanship you just can't replicate these days with the original elements of the home, you'll still enjoy the comforts of modernised bathrooms full of natural light and unique features. All rooms enjoy cooling air conditioning and when the weather cools, you'll love the old pot-belly in the formal lounge and also the slow-combustion wood heater that warms the open-plan kitchen, meals, and family area to make everyone feel cosy and connected.
