Spring Cottage - Where Heritage Meets Country Chic
Perched high in the coveted Anzac Hill precinct, Spring Cottage (circa 1865) is a home that feels like a love letter to the past. Here, history and elegance entwine in a setting that could grace the pages of A Country Style magazine. Just a short stroll, 170 metres, from Maldon's charming High Street, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience.

From the moment you arrive, the romance begins. Drystone walls frame meandering stone-edged paths that lead through a garden alive with lavender, rosemary, and native blooms. The front verandah, with its peek of original timber shingles, invites you to pause and take in the elevated views across the garden and surrounding landscape, a scene that whispers of slower days and timeless beauty.

Step inside the miner's cottage and you are greeted by a north-facing living room, where a solid wood heater nestles into a period surround, casting warmth across polished floorboards and timber dado. Built-in shelves add character, while 6x6 period windows frame enchanting garden vistas. At the rear, the kitchen and dining area is a celebration of French country chic, with French blue cabinetry, concrete-look benchtops, and modern conveniences including an electric cooktop, undermount oven, and dishwasher. From here, step out to the rear garden, where rock walls dating back to the 1860s tell stories of another era.

On the ground floor, a bedroom opens through French doors to the garden, complemented by an updated bathroom with a deep bath and a striking vintage timber laundry trough. Upstairs, the main bedroom is a private sanctuary, complete with French doors to a wraparound verandah, built-in robes, and a contemporary ensuite with floor-to-ceiling tiles. From here, enjoy sweeping views over the garden and towards Maldon's historic rooftops.

Beyond the home, two studios offer endless possibilities. One is a fully lined, soundproofed weatherboard space with carpeted floors, track lighting, a split system and shelving, perfect for a home office or creative retreat. The second studio, carpeted and fitted with a split system, adds flexibility for guests or hobbies. Both studios also make ideal accommodations for guests.

The garden is a world of its own: raised veggie beds, fruit trees, gravel pathways, and quiet sitting areas where you can listen to the birdsong and watch echidnas wander by. Occasionally, even a koala makes an appearance on Anzac Hill. Water tanks, ornamental plantings, and an old spring stone well on the nature strip complete this idyllic picture. Surrounded by Crown land, the property offers a sense of seclusion rarely found so close to town.

Spring Cottage is more than a home; it is a lifestyle. Whether you dream of a romantic weekender, a permanent escape, or a residence that feels like a page from a magazine, this historic Maldon treasure is ready to welcome you.
