‘Trenton Cottage’ is an enchanting property occupying an expansive 1,667m2 (approx.) of lush established gardens offering a private oasis approximately 10 minutes from the CBD. The 1900s home has evolved into a spacious family sanctuary of picturesque surrounds that provides peaceful living with the convenience of its central location!
The original cottage remains well preserved and boats authentic characteristics such as the wrap around verandah lined with iron lacework, soaring high ceilings, stained glass doors, polished floorboards and original restored fireplaces that feature in the bedroom and the formal living area. The adjoining formal dining room looks out onto the rear pool and picturesque garden of bountiful fruit trees that line the garage / artist studio.
Transitioning into the extension of the home you’re welcomed into a pavilion-style, open living space that maintains the high ceilings, which are enhanced by the angled timber conservatory windows that lead the eye into the treetops outside. French glass doors throughout the home can be opened to seamlessly bring the outside tranquillity of the fishpond and established trees inside, with the kitchen overlooking the garden and living areas it is an entertainers dream.
The kitchen features integrated appliances, quality timber cabinetry, large granite bench tops and ample pantry and storage space. A study next to the kitchen and main living area offers a quiet and functional space to work from home with a built in desk and storage.
Designed for the functionality of family living the home is comprised of three bedrooms. Two in the cottage at the front of the home, each with French glass doors that open onto the veranda.
The generous master suite is situated privately in the rear extension and includes north-facing windows that look out onto the garden, large walk-in robes and a luxurious ensuite with corner spa bath, shower, timber cabinetry and quality marble bench tops.
Outdoors, the expansive grounds offer a selection of lush spaces to be enjoyed under a spectacular canopy of trees. A private and secluded pool area offers a resort style retreat and a fitting centrepiece to the scenic surrounds. To provide for the pool, pond and home there are two water tanks in the rear of the property with a capacity of 27,000 litres.
