Overview
Situated within one of Thornleigh’s earliest planned residential streets, this charming Federation-era cottage, known as 'Nestlebrae' circa 1908, merges original character with thoughtful contemporary enhancements. The gracious return verandah creates a welcoming entrance to a spacious, single-level layout with 3.1 metre ceilings and richly preserved timber floors, establishing a distinctive ambience throughout the home.
Historical features including five functioning traditional fireplaces, pressed metal ceilings, stained-glass windows, and a clawfoot bathtub pay homage to the home’s heritage charm. Meanwhile, zoned ducted air conditioning and other modern conveniences maintain comfort year-round.
The residence’s design offers versatility, including generous bedrooms and adaptable living areas well-suited for multi-generational living arrangements. Western Red Cedar cladding and trims enhance both the interior and exterior aesthetic, creating a cohesive natural warmth.
