Overview

Sunshine Cottage is a rare gem, blending over 130 years of historical character with modern comforts on a desirable 626m² fully fenced lot in an established area of Casino. Occupying a prime position with rear-lane access, this circa 1890 home stands out for its original architectural features including soaring ceilings, polished timber floors, pressed-metal ceilings and traditional double-hung windows, all adding a timeless elegance readily appreciated upon entry.

The residence offers versatility with five-bedroom accommodation comprising four bedrooms and a generously sized rumpus room adaptable as a fifth bedroom or home office, ideal for growing families or those seeking flexible living spaces. Recent updates such as a refreshed kitchen, new carpeting, fresh paint, ceiling fans, and comprehensive air conditioning enhance everyday comfort while preserving the home's celebrated period allure.

Designed for both charm and functionality, the generous living room centers around a welcoming fireplace and benefits from climate control, providing an inviting heart for the home.
