Elegance and Old-World Charm Meet Modern Living
Set amid a large 4,883m2 block of lush, mature landscaped gardens complete with a picturesque pond and bridge, this beautiful home originally built in 1895, has been sympathetically renovated and extended to its current glory. Located within the township of Yass with approximately one kilometre away from the CBD, this unexpected oasis offers a reflection of old-world charm and ambience. On entering the original double brick cottage, you will be impressed with the large sitting room with doors leading to the covered entertaining deck and featuring a warm fireplace. The open-plan kitchen overlooking the dining room features an island bench, granite benchtops and is modern, functional, and large and is centrally located within the home. The family room is located next to the dining room and leads to the outdoor entertaining covered deck providing beautiful vista of the garden. 'Sleepy Hollow' is a unique, elegant residence ideally suited to any family who is looking for a semi-rural lifestyle in an urban area with all the modern comforts and amenities.
