3 Oakland Street, Mittagong

Price Guide: Sold for $995,000

This exquisite weatherboard home offers more than just its size, location, treetop brilliance and beauty. On a serene half-acre, it also comes with a self-contained garden apartment and current approval to subdivide off the back block if you so desire.

With hints of Hamptons style, loads of cottage charm but the space and elegance of a countryside family home, this will steal your heart just as it is. But if you like the idea that you could one day build on or sell off the back block, or earn passive income from the studio ($200-$250 p/wk has been previously earned as a permanent let or more for holiday letting), this one could also be your diamond mine.

Housing four spacious and elegant bedrooms, (the fourth currently used as a study looking through French doors to the garden) and an enormous back area that includes country kitchen, dining room and living room, all benefiting from the surrounding picture windows that make you feel you are living in the treetops, there is a definite ‘wow’ factor. With wheelchair access via a side ramp along the home, and an impressive entertaining deck, this home could also be your perfect weekender (able to sleep at least ten) and it is also in a popular area for the thriving Southern Highlands short stays rental market.

A short, beautiful walk to the back of the Frensham School grounds and just a couple of minutes to the train station or the bustling cafes and shops of Mittagong and close to the freeway for Sydney commuters, it ticks all boxes.

Some particularly special features include:

Views to Mt Gibraltar from the back room
Under house storage plus garden shed
North/west outlook with a sunny living area
Slow combustion wood fire plus gas log heating and gas points
Gorgeous reclaimed hardwood floors and painted cedar weatherboards
Stylish interiors including glamorous chandeliers; suits modern or traditional furniture

Exquisite federation-style bathrooms
Large under-house entertaining space perfect for teens
Eclectic and versatile in terms of style – make it your own
Garden apartment includes bathroom, bedroom & kitchenette
Raised vegetable beds

This gorgeous home is a delight to inspect and its street appeal is very special. Tucked-away in a leafy, whisper-quiet part of Mittagong, it offers a true tree-change.
