Originally built circa 1870 and owned by the same family since 1966, this locally known gem, The Cottage, offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique home. Elevated to the rear with an open aspect, the property enjoys the potential for far-reaching views and sits on an enviable quarter-acre plot.
