Nestled in the heart of Lawson, this charming character cottage sits on a generous 2,915m² approx block and enjoys a peaceful, leafy bushland outlook that perfectly captures the tranquillity of mountain living. Whether you're seeking a peaceful mountain retreat, a project to renovate and make your own, or a rare landholding with enormous potential, this lovingly named "Lilac Cottage" is a truly special offering that captures the soul of mountain living. Offering outstanding potential to renovate, rebuild or create your ideal Blue Mountains retreat (STCA), the value here is firmly in the land and lifestyle.
The rustic timber cottage exudes warmth and character at every turn, with beautiful hardwood-lined walls, timber-panelled ceilings, and striking slate stone floors throughout the living areas. The inviting living room is centred around a charming wood-burning fireplace, creating the perfect cozy retreat during cool Blue Mountains winters, while multiple windows frame those incredible valley and mountain views that stretch endlessly to the horizon. A secondary living space features wall-mounted heating, exposed timber beams, and a warm pendant light, ideal as a sitting room, sunroom, or additional entertaining zone.
The kitchen retains its original cottage character with timber benchtops, timber-lined walls and ceilings, exposed beams, and a gas cooktop, full of potential for a beautiful renovation that honours the home's heritage charm. A combined bathroom and laundry completes the internal layout, with two comfortable bedrooms including a generous main bedroom.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own. The enormous block is surrounded by lush native bushland, established gardens, and towering trees, providing an extraordinary sense of privacy and seclusion rarely found in a residential setting. A covered carport, patio, awning area, and two garden sheds complete the practical outdoor spaces, while the expansive lawn area offers endless possibilities for families, gardeners, or those with a vision to create something extraordinary.
A true Blue Mountains sanctuary, the property adjoins the North Lawson Waterfall Circuit, offering near-direct access from the rear boundary to some of the region's most beautiful waterfalls, hidden gullies and rainforest walking trails.
