THIS picture-perfect Pomona cottage is such a delight, with its many original features and commanding position. It's also a rare find, being an important slice of hinterland history.
Built as Pomona's first police station in 1927, this is now a fabulous village home, right down to the charming picket fence.
Renovations over the years have been done well, with so many special features preserved, including original wide hoop pine floorboards, high VJ ceilings and walls, French doors, fretwork and more.
There are welcome modern touches, too, including air-conditioning, town water and mains sewerage.
The three pretty bedrooms all open through French doors to the wonderful wraparound verandah, where you can sit and watch the world go by.
The open plan layout provides plenty of options, while the spacious kitchen includes a dishwasher.
This home is as impressive outside as it is in, with a majestic mango tree providing a stunning centrepiece on the 875sq m block.
Fully-fenced with a dog-proof yard, there's a great undercover entertainment area offering both peace and privacy.
Just an easy stroll from the village shops, cafes and schools.
