Overview
This architecturally renovated and extended weatherboard cottage in Carrington presents an exquisite blend of period charm and contemporary sophistication, transforming from its original two-bedroom layout into a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom residence. The harmonious integration of classic features such as tall ceilings, timber-paneled walls, and honey-toned wide timber floorboards imbues warmth and character, while bespoke joinery and a well-curated color palette underpin the modern architectural enhancements.
Designed for both functionality and comfort, the home's layout strategically positions all bedrooms at the front, ensuring privacy and a clear delineation of spaces.
