Set on 2600sqm of beautiful land in the heart of Stirling is this sensational 2 storey cottage filled with charm and character, renovated and extended by award winning architect, Pauline Hurren.
From the cobbled driveway you notice the superbly crafted stone work of this 1880's building surrounded by beautiful gardens. Highly imaginative and distinctly unique with French Provincial Artistry this bright, excitingly different home has totally co-ordinated decor with a functional and practical floor plan and superior presentation.
Enter the home via stable doors into the formal lounge room with combustion heater, you then realize that this home is amazing. French doors open to a light filled conservatory, complete with heated exposed concrete floor, lots of windows to take in the beautiful surrounding gardens and French doors opening out to courtyard. A great room to entertain friends or have a coffee and read the morning paper.
The French Provincial kitchen/family room is at the rear of the home with lots of glass and French doors that open out onto a large paved courtyard complete with water features, ideal for alfresco entertaining. The cook's kitchen has been built to commercial standard, cleverly concealed by the superb craftsmanship of the renowned Chris Norris, combining quality appointments including stainless steel benches, integrated European appliances and the brilliant butler's pantry with a second sink, dry goods storage and benchtop.
To the back of this amazing home is the master suite, spacious and charming with en-suite bathroom and French doors opening to its own private courtyard. Second bathroom and laundry.
The upper level is now being used as a teenagers retreat. At the top of the stairs is a spacious family room with lots of light and doors opening to a Juliette balcony. 2 large bedrooms one with built-in-robes and a sink.
Large double lock up garage with auto panel lift doors, 3 phase power going to the kitchen and under the garage is a large space, could be used as a store room, workshop or maybe for a teenage with a drum kit.
The rear garden is extensive with a gentle slope down to a well at the bottom of this fenced property. 2 large rainwater tanks service the rear irrigated garden.
This is an amazing home and would be sought after by the person looking for something a little different and quirky. Close to Stirling village, Stirling East school is around the corner and the bus service is just down the road, only 15 mins to the CBD.
