This historic and character filled three-bedroom cottage was originally the Warialda Rail Station Masters home. Built around 1901 when the Moree to Inverell line was completed it is now all that remains of the original rail infrastructure as well as the yard crane which is situated just outside the fence. The home consists of a wide front verandah leading on through the original entry door and beautiful wide hallway with polished floorboards. Two large bedrooms of 14' x 14' are located on either side of the hallway each with original fireplaces. Beautiful art deco light fittings throughout the home add to its charm The cosy lounge room has a cast iron fire surround and wooden mantle as well as R/C air conditioner. Bedroom 3 is equally as large as the other two and is accessed off the lounge. The kitchen boasts an original Beacon Light stove in working order (an absolute godsend in the winter months). A ceramic cooktop, in wall oven, dishwasher and rangehood modernise the space. A mudroom with separate pantry/storage room is located at the back of the house. The bathroom has a shower over a full-size bathtub and a modern vanity with the toilet located separately The large laundry room with original copper still in place is near the backdoor The gardens have been lovingly curated with mostly native plantings attracting a myriad of bird life There is a good, registered bore with an electric pump as well as 25,000l of water storage, a 4kw solar system, fowl run and three bay shed.
