Peace and quiet

Convict-built and full of character, this split-level Heritage Cottage was once part of a 19th-century vegetable garden tended by convicts. Blue-stone walls and pit-sawn floorboards bring history to life, while a cozy open-plan dining area with a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm retreat. Enjoy the perfect mix of heritage charm and modern comfort — just a short walk from the CBD, waterfront, Salamanca, and Battery Point.
