Steeped in history and overlooking Picton since 1882, the former Assistant Station Master’s Residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Picton’s heritage. If only walls could talk and stories be told. Standing proud to meet the modern day, with a balance of street appeal and privacy, this beautifully evolved cottage blends simple settler origins with sophisticated modern renovations, creating a home that is as evocative as it is comfortable, characterful and charming.
Positioned on a commanding 1032m² block (over a quarter acre), the home enjoys a delightfully elevated aspect with leafy views that change with the seasons. Experience the unique atmosphere of the region as steam trains periodically rumble over the nearby viaduct, watch a local footy game from the comfort of your decked veranda, or simply relax on the paved patio, in a garden nook, the spa or by the firepit.
Inside, the residence flows through the wide and gracious hall to light-filled spaces defined by timber 10ft ceilings and a striking 14ft Mansard ceiling in the kitchen and dining areas. Three spacious and light-filled bedrooms, two with original fireplaces and Baltic and cypress floors. Unwind with hygge on chilly evenings in front of the fire in the large formal lounge or use the convenience of the reverse-cycle air conditioner. A beautiful Shaker kitchen with timber benchtops and quality European appliances makes cooking a breeze and leads through a family dining area with French doors to a paved patio and lush gardens.
