Hidden amongst bush-clad hills lies this super sweet and oh-so-peaceful cottage, offering a private sanctuary in the heart of St Leonards. Originally starting its life on the other side of the harbour, this character-filled home was carefully relocated and thoughtfully upgraded. Upon being moved, it was fully rewired, replumbed, and completely repainted—seamlessly blending classic charm with modern comfort.
Once stepping inside you feel instantly at ease. You can relax in the cosy lounge or unwind in the stunning dining nook, where you can sit and watch the world come and go while listening to the surrounding birdlife. The home features two double bedrooms and one single, each filled with natural light and cottage character and a sunroom which would be perfect for a wicker lounge set or even a home office!
The country-style bathroom has been tastefully modernised, offering the perfect mix of rustic charm and contemporary convenience. The cottage kitchen delivers exactly what you would hope for—warm, welcoming, and full of personality—making every day feel like a holiday.
Outside, the charm from inside continues out. The gardens are maintained for ease of living, while a cute balcony and pebbled outdoor entertaining area provide ideal spaces to relax or host friends in a peaceful, private setting.
If you've been dreaming of a tranquil escape that still offers modern comforts, this enchanting cottage is ready to welcome you home.
The owner is also happy to leave a chickenm or two for eggs!
