Waratah Cottage carries the warmth and detail of its era through every room. Ornamental fireplaces, lofty ceilings, and pressed tin detailing create a sense of history that runs through the home, while thoughtfully updated interiors keep everything feeling fresh and lived-in rather than preserved.
The open-plan kitchen and dining area form the social heart of the home, well-suited to groups looking to spread out and settle in. The kitchen is equipped with a gas cooktop, stone benchtops, and stainless steel appliances, and the large dining table offers plenty of room for shared meals. The separate lounge is a comfortable room to unwind in, with a central TV and plenty of seating.
Outside, a gas BBQ, outdoor dining table, lounge setting, and movable TV unit create a proper outdoor room. A chiminea adds warmth after dark, and a backyard extends beyond the deck.
The primary bedroom offers a king bed, wardrobe, and private ensuite with walk-in shower, double sinks, and toilet. The second bedroom also has a king bed, while the third bedroom houses two single beds with an occasional chair and arcade games, suited to younger guests or flexible arrangements. A main bathroom with bathtub and vanity serves the remaining bedrooms.
A laundry with a washing machine and dryer is included for longer stays. Central heating and cooling ensure your comfort year-round. Driveway parking for one small vehicle is included, with street parking available nearby.
A portacot and high chair are available to hire for a fee. Should you require them, please let us know upon booking.
