1579 Nepean Highway, Mount Eliza, VIC, 3930, Australia

Positioned within lush surroundings, the glorious verdant backdrop is a perfect setting for this enchanting home, Jakins Cottage, built in 1936.

Brimming with period charm, the much-loved weatherboard residence begins in a front vestibule which invites you into the spacious lounge and dining room. Here you'll discover high ceilings and a beautiful open fireplace to supplement the gas ducted heating, and it's easy to imagine nestling in front of a toasty fire on a cold winter's evening. The adjacent kitchen with slate flooring offers a range of timber cabinetry, including a solid dresser and feature rangehood, plus a Technika electric oven and cooktop.

Sliding doors from the lounge open to generous balconies including an ornate bullnose veranda and new extended deck. Enjoy an amazing view across the luxuriant woodland garden and Kackeraboite Creek Reserve for restful daydreaming and magical starlit evenings. With an abundance of birdlife and fauna, this is a wonderful setting for nature-lovers.

Back inside, both the master with BIRs and 2nd bedrooms are light and airy, and have French doors out to the new deck, perfect for soaking up the treetop views. They are serviced by a traditional bathroom with roll-top clawfoot bath and brass shower attachment, vanity and toilet, plus an adjoining laundry with external access.

Stairs lead down to a multi-purpose space that has been updated with new flooring, fresh paint, and abundant built-in storage and BIRs. It offers a peaceful studio or sitting room to enjoy views of the woodlands whatever the weather, and it could be a 3rd bedroom or teenage retreat, as it includes a new period-style bathroom with spa bath, vanity and toilet, plus a door directly to the garden.

Outside, wander through the meandering woodland garden, with pond, statuary, and abundant seating, including a rustic gazebo for entertaining around the pot belly stove, while the end of the garden is bordered by the delightful creek with a shady weeping willow.

Additional features include brass tapware and fittings throughout, Ring security, ceiling fans, ample off-street parking, and carport, all set on a substantial 1,412sqm (approx.) block.

Comfortable and move-in ready, there's also potential for updates if desired. This is a delightful home close to highly regarded schools in the coveted Frankston High School and Derinya Primary School zones, and just minutes to vibrant Mt Eliza village and stunning beaches.
