912 Dashwood Gully Road

Perched to survey the gentle fall of its roaming 4000sqm plot and the countryside beyond, you'll never look back in this c1915 stone return verandah cottage that feels two worlds away, just 1km from Meadows village. Inside, timber floors, generous rooms, high ceilings and lashings of light define the original cottage, while thoughtful changes over time have allowed the home to evolve without losing the character that made it special in the first place. The layout remains comfortably simple and beautifully functional, with generous bedrooms branching from the central living spaces and a separate study or sitting room offering flexibility depending on how life unfolds. What was once an external stone wall now runs proudly through the interior as a textural backdrop to a galley kitchen with timber tops, deep storage and dishwasher. A custom dining nook has been cleverly carved into the plan, a long timber table flanked by built-in seating that turns every meal into a front-row seat to the surrounding landscape. Bedrooms branch comfortably from the central hall, each enjoying garden views and the simplicity typical of early Hills cottages. The bathroom leans into the cottage character too, pairing a freestanding claw bath with a stone feature wall of its own. Beyond, a vine-covered patio eyes off those Spring long-table lunches, a substantial garage and caravan bay to welcome your big toys, while a separate studio offers yet another space to create, work or simply escape. And escape you will.
