CHARACTER COTTAGE - A REAL CHARMER

Current application for Sub-division in place at Landgate.

Built in the 1920s, this weatherboard cottage is filled with delightful period features.

There's an elevated front porch overlooking the garden where you can sit with a cuppa and enjoy the sea air. From the backyard, stairs take you down to a cellar.

Inside you'll find timber flooring, high ceilings, panelled walls and character architraves.

The layout includes a large living room with fireplace, dining/family area and kitchen.

As with homes of this era, it's been adapted and updated over the years and the floor plan is a little quirky. For example, the master bedroom opens off the kitchen. It has a large walk-in robe.

Two more bedrooms are accessed via the laundry. One has built-in robes, the other has a robe recess and outdoor access. The bathroom is also off the laundry. It has previously been renovated and has a bath/shower, vanity unit and toilet.

Sliding doors in the dining/family area open to a small porch with stairs to the backyard. Here there is a large paved area, timber deck, garden beds and lawn.

If you love character, this home is an absolute winner - unique and full of charm. It's also ready for you to put your own touches to the interior and garden.

However, if character isn't your thing, consider the opportunity to build new in the fabulous location. The property is a 10-minute walk from the golden sands and sparkling waters of Palm Beach. You can also take the coastal pathway to the Rockingham Foreshore in one direction or Point Peron in the other.

And if you have a boat, it's a short drive to Palm Beach boat ramps.

You can also walk to Lake Richmond, take the dog to the enclosed dog park, or visit Bayview Reserve or Rotary Reserve. There's a bus stop nearly on the doorstep, and if you have kids, Rockingham Beach Primary School is minutes away and there are many other schools close by.

Whether you settle in and enjoy a home with a touch of yesteryear or choose to start fresh with something modern, a fantastic coastal lifestyle awaits.
