There is a sense of the unreal about this practical single level 3 bedroom cottage all wonderfully obscured from view with its huge rear deck jutting out into the rainforest where you can reach out to touch the palm fronds and be entertained by the birds in their natural habitat. As you drive pass the cottage all you see is a dense barrier of greenery with an archway cut through the shrubbery leading to a quaint gate and below that the entry to a single gated carport.

A well made crazy paved path leads from the front gate through an established and pretty front garden to the front door which is set below the main floor. An old style green timber and glass door opens to reveal a one-of-a-kind entry. What was once external stairs have been replaced with a timber stairwell and enclosed with fascinating recycled timber windows and timber panelling that probably date back about 80 -100 years. Brass coat racks have been installed part of the way up the stairs to hook up your outdoor gear in wet weather.

Make a right turn at the top of the stairs and step into a spacious open plan living with white painted raked ceiling. You will look straight across the living space through a pair of solid cedar and glass colonial style French door, over the balcony and into the middle of the rainforest. The lounge area with delightfully framed slow combustion heater is carpeted while the dining area has a polished timber floor. Look right and behold a full timber kitchen with polished timber bench tops and a big double antique timber window above the sink where the view is just magical rainforest.

Everyone dreams of having a large party deck in the middle of the jungle! Well it is certainly here! This dream deck faces north-east at the rear of the house and gets winter sunshine and summer afternoon shade. A smart owner has the clothes line hanging off the edge of the deck so you just peg out the clothes while standing high above ground here.

The home has 3 bedrooms, bathroom with shower over sitz tub and a separate toilet as well as a separate tiled laundry. Two of the bedrooms look out into the high fenced side gardens and front garden areas while the third looks out into that precious rainforest. All bedrooms have carpeted floors.

And there is a hidden secret here too! A large part concrete and part timber deck has been built underneath the north-eastern corner of the house for a magical “sitting on the jungle floor” experience. All it needs is a railing around the timber floored area to make it just the most cool and welcoming place on a summer’s afternoon. A stairway leads down from here to the ground and a rear garden that is naturally self-maintaining.

If you long for nature around you, this well priced home will satisfy your wildest dreams!
