Oak Cottage | A Claremont Upper Classic Made for Family Life
Oak Cottage is an established Claremont Upper family home with a character and presence that immediately sets it apart.
Set behind an established garden, the ivy-clad home unfolds over two generous levels, with expansive reception and entertaining spaces downstairs and a private three-bedroom family accommodation level above.
French doors, covered verandahs, fireplaces, mature greenery and a swimming pool give Oak Cottage the warmth of an established home, while its generous proportions, dedicated study, multiple living spaces, solar installation and excellent parking provide the practicality required for modern family life.
It is a home that feels distinctly of its neighbourhood, private, established and exceptionally well positioned in the heart of Claremont Upper.
Welcome to Oak Cottage, a rather special family home in the heart of Claremont Upper, combining generous proportions, character architecture and a wonderfully established garden setting.
Designed across two levels, the home offers excellent separation between its expansive downstairs living and entertaining spaces and the private bedroom accommodation upstairs.
Downstairs:
- A welcoming entrance hall introduces a series of generous and versatile reception spaces.
- The ground floor includes a formal living room with fireplace, a separate dining room, and a substantial family living room, providing plenty of space for both everyday family life and entertaining.
- The kitchen is centrally positioned and complemented by a separate pantry, while a dedicated study/home office provides an ideal work-from-home space. A separate laundry, bathroom and guest WC add further practicality.
- One of Oak Cottage’s defining features is its connection to the outdoors. Multiple sets of French doors open from the living and dining areas onto covered patios, the garden and swimming pool, creating an easy flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Upstairs:
- The first floor forms a dedicated family bedroom wing comprising three generously proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms.
- The main bedroom includes built-in cupboards and an en-suite bathroom, while bedrooms two and three are serviced by a separate family bathroom.
- The particularly spacious third bedroom also incorporates a dedicated desk/workspace, with built-in storage provided throughout the bedroom level.
Garden & Outdoor Living:
- Outside, Oak Cottage is surrounded by an established and private garden, with mature greenery providing an attractive backdrop to the swimming pool and entertainment areas.
- Several covered patios and outdoor living spaces provide different places to entertain, dine or simply enjoy the garden throughout the year.
- Additional features include solar panels, garaging and covered carport parking.
- Above all, Oak Cottage offers something increasingly difficult to find: an established family home with genuine character, generous living spaces and a superb Claremont Upper position.
A rather special home, made for family life.
