Built in 1844 by Balmain's first publican Edward Robinson (Captain Cook Hotel), historic 'Rose Cottage' is a home of local significance all the more remarkable as having only exchanged hands four times. Meticulously restored and expanded by the current owners, it blends Georgian craftsmanship with sympathetic updates and notably includes the area's only remaining original sandstone outbuilding. Thoughtfully planned interiors provide a haven of space, privacy and modern comfort, with a nature garden at the rear, an entertainment deck and magical views to the Barangaroo skyline and Sydney Harbour Bridge. A property of distinguished pedigree in a prized position, 'Rose Cottage' is ready for its new custodians to enjoy as their own and cherish for years to come. - High ceilings, floorboards and a restored sandstone open fireplace- Spacious open living and dining plus versatile media or sitting area- Living opens to a rear deck and the garden for easy entertaining- Island kitchen blending casual elegance with a functional design- Ground floor bedrooms open to a front patio and cottage garden- Parents suite has walk-in robe and adjoining nursery room/study- Bathroom on each level and one with a standalone eggshell bath - Original outbuilding currently used as storage or workshop area- 150m to east village amenities, 220m Nicholson St Public School- 300m to Balmain East ferries with city/QVB buses at the wharf
