Queenscliff 29 Mercer Street

So often we come across a property that has tried to blend its history with contemporary living...but somehow didn't quite get it right. NOT this one! The originality of the cottage has not only retained its historic appeal but has also been enhanced by the cleverly crafted renovation and extension of its former dimensions. If you ever dreamed of the perfect home to fill with a loving family, this is it...including the white picket fence!

We could bang on about why you may have chosen Queenscliff as your place of residence but honestly, isn't it obvious? Centuries old charm in a friendly township surrounded by water are dead giveaways as to your motivation! That said, this property delivers on the promises you were hoping to achieve.

Laid out in traditional cottage style, the 3 spacious bedrooms are all situated either side of the central passage at the front of the home, as is the first of two classy bathrooms to balance out the space. With their double hung windows and classic high ceilings, there is no doubt that there are many a story to be heard within these walls. Fitted with ceiling fans, a neutral palate and quality soft furnishings, these are rooms that invite rest with welcoming arms. Each of the bathrooms enjoys a more modern approach that compliments the home's original elements beautifully. The second even boasts a private walk-in dressing room.

Possibly the most charming space in the home would be the cosy sitting room with its classic brick walls, picture window and quaint fireplace. Perfectly designed to draw you in on a chilly evening, one can imagine many a happy moment being shared here. At the rear, the large open living area has a pleasantly communal feel providing the ultimate indoor / outdoor arrangement with patio doors to the immaculately presented paved alfresco areas and garden. The light flooding in from the mass of windows puts a smile, not only on your face, but also deep within your heart. Beautifully finished with all of the conveniences you could require, the area also incorporates a clever European laundry and extensive kitchen.

Quality is not even a question here, the proof of it is evident everywhere you turn. NOBO heating, custom joinery, window furnishings and polished concrete floors are all testament to the level of thought, care and expense that have gone into this home's refurbishment. Nobody has tried to hide the character of this building, instead they have embraced its personality and given it new life. One that is only just beginning!
