Elphin Cottage, Where Heritage Meets Tranquillity!

Welcome to Elphin Cottage - a storybook 1843 return verandah cottage that captures the essence of country living in the scenic surrounds of Houghton.
Set on 1,200sqm of creek side tranquillity, this heritage property offers timeless character, functional spaces, with all the creature comforts of today.

A self-sufficient lifestyle awaits with numerous fruit trees, and a ready-to-go chicken coop. The tranquil creek setting further enhances the peaceful country atmosphere.

Inside, discover the warmth of Jarrah timber floors and a cosy gas log fire in the spacious sitting room/ bedroom.
Step down into the generously sized, renovated Baltic pine kitchen, featuring granite benchtops, gas cooking and an island bar. There is still a traditional "Metters" wood oven in the fire-place ideal for country cooking and keeping the whole house warm during the winter months. The kitchen is a warm blend of rustic charm and modern convenience.

The adjacent family room is a true highlight, boasting unique twin-peak raked ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and French twin doors. A cosy pot belly stove creates a warm and relaxing space to entertain or sit and look out over the creek meandering through the rear gardens.

The renovated bathroom offers period-style tiling and a charming claw-foot bathtub for those that enjoy the relaxation of a bath at the end of a long day.

The main bedroom features a bay window and a built-in robe, and there a second toilet conveniently located off the laundry, adjacent to a small glazed studio room.

Outdoor living is a delight with a large pitched-roof verandah off the family room, perfect for entertaining. Alternatively, you can stroll down the rear verandah and over the footbridge to a delightful outdoor gazebo.
Also tucked away down the back of the garden is a detached office or reading room, the ideal place to retreat to for some quiet contemplation.

Last but not least there is plenty of car accommodation with a large lock-up double garage (perfect for the handy man to use as a workshop or a place to secure those big boy toys). There is also a fully concreted area alongside the garage large enough to park a caravan or a couple cars, with more parking spaces in front of the garage.

Houghton enjoys a peaceful, picturesque lifestyle surrounded by rolling hills, lush greenery, and charming country atmosphere. This friendly community offers a perfect blend of rural living and convenient access to nearby shopping, cafes, and quality schools. With beautiful walking trails, and stunning views - your lifestyle retreat awaits.
