Set in the heart of Stirling, this is an exciting and rare opportunity to secure an 1880s cottage on a whopping 1960m2 and take in that fresh Hills air daily.
A 'restore rather than replace' mentality has seen this three-bedroom charmer restored with integrity by the current owners, who have worked hard to maintain the authenticity of the thick stone cottage.
Set well back from the road under towering trees, take in the updated paintwork, farm-style fence and north-facing orientation on a block that rises gently to the rear, creating a wonderful setting for taking in sunsets over the trees – and plenty of food for renovation thought.
Entering into the formal lounge onto timber floors, a Nectre wood fire and original mantle wrapped in rich timber built-ins is the perfect setting for curling up with a cuppa.
On the eastern side of the home, find two beautiful large bedrooms under lofty character ceilings, the second fitted with built-in robes, a ceiling fan and lead light French doors to a private decked pergola, while a third bedroom is also fitted with built-in robes.
Where modern meets country living, the open plan living has been carefully tied into its existing features, with wonderful polished concrete floors completed with a resin finish to match the tones of the garden's Carey Gully stone.
Open plan living is bathed in wonderful afternoon light and takes in the great outdoors no matter where you sit, with three sets of glass sliding doors guiding you to the patio, where dining Alfresco is a simple everyday indulgence.
Under LED downlights a modern kitchen is powered by stainless steel appliances, with a lengthy stone bench and window bank optimising beautiful garden views, with a servery window to boot.
This is a thrilling opportunity to secure your very own slice of history with all the modern conveniences of today.
For locals and visitors alike, there is so much to enjoy in the everyday from this wonderful location, across the road from Stirling's best coffee at Patch Kitchen & Garden.
Just a ten-minute walk to the iconic Stirling Hotel, cafes and everyday shops in the village, while a short drive to explore other quaint Hills villages including neighbouring Aldgate, Uraidla and Hahndorf, prepare to fall in love with your new life in Stirling.
