Built circa 1878 and lovingly renovated, extended, and updated in the early 1990s, this iconic Arrowtown cottage is situated on a substantial 1012 sq m (more or less) parcel of land in one of the town's most coveted locations on Caernarvon Street, just an easy 300m stroll to town. Known locally as O'Callaghans Cottage and affectionately called "Leisurelee Cottage" by the Foster family, who have cherished it since 1964, this home exudes a rich heritage. The cottage's original configuration features two large bedrooms and an open-plan kitchen and dining area. A third loft bedroom, added in the late 1970s, sits above the original stone stable block, offering a unique retreat within the home. A modern extension completed around 1991 seamlessly connects the two stone structures, introducing a separate bathroom, toilet, and a spacious living room equipped with a wood burner fire and heat pump for year-round comfort. Modern wiring, plumbing, ceiling insulation and a new roof was installed at this time also. This Category 2 listed property has been treasured by only two owners for over a century, underscoring its desirability and prime location. Whether you are looking to undertake another renovation or move in immediately and bask in its classic glory and history, O'Callaghans Cottage represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Properties of this nature rarely become available in this dress circle location.
