Set behind a classic white picket fence and nestled within a flourishing orchard of established fruit trees sits this beautifully restored piece of Tewantin’s history — thoughtfully renovated while honouring its century-old character.
Originally built circa 1920 as one of Tewantin’s early fishing cottages, the home sits proudly high on the hill, perfectly positioned to capture cooling river breezes. From here, it’s just a gentle seven-minute stroll to the cafés and village charm of Tewantin’s Main Street.
A recent carefully considered renovation has elevated the property while preserving its soul, seamlessly blending old and new. A substantial north-facing deck with a flyover roof creates an exceptional outdoor living space, ideal for year-round entertaining. The addition of a spacious studio and carport enhances flexibility, while a comprehensive landscaping overhaul — complete with a plunge pool and connecting deck & pathways — has created a cohesive, private sanctuary.
Inside, the home retains its timeless character, whilst perfectly blending a new kitchen, with original timber floors, VJ panelling to walls and ceilings, and French doors and windows that flood the interiors with natural light. The garden remains a standout feature, with limes, guavas, and persimmons thriving throughout, all kept thriving with an fully automated irrigation and highlighted with garden lighting..
Single level and positioned on a near-flat block, this beautiful cottage offers an ideal bolt hold in the tightly held Old Tewantin market or an attractive downsizing opportunity without compromise. Rich in history, enhanced for modern living, and located just moments from the heart of town — this is a home with genuine warmth, character, and enduring appeal.
