Nestled close to the banks of the Hunter River and Telerah Lagoon, this picture perfect weatherboard cottage offers growing families a warm, cosy lifestyle they'll never want to leave.

Perched on a 4938sqm block in peaceful Regent St, the property provides a tranquil rural lifestyle right in the heart of burgeoning Maitland.

You really can have the best of both worlds here, where you can pick fresh fruit from your 24-tree orchard, before taking a leisurely stroll down High Street's boutique and major store shopping strip.

On the weekend you'll be hard pressed to choose between eggs from your own chicken coop or popping out for brunch at one of the nearby cafes.

The Maitland Hospital is just a short walk away, while those that love the outdoors will adore the spacious yard to create a lush garden and collect honey from your very own beehive.

The home itself is picturesque and packed with many charming features including a quaint front picket fence, a gorgeous verandah and inside, a long entry hall lined with polished pine floorboards and a square arch with decorative timber fretwork.

French doors open at the end of the hall to reveal a long, light-filled rear living area with a wonderfully warm and peaceful ambience, polished floorboards, contemporary downlights and sliding doors opening out onto the rear entertaining deck.

This creates the ideal entertaining zone for weekend barbeques, birthday parties or just winding down at the end of a long week.

Squareset openings branching off either side of the main hallway lead to the charming dining room on one side and the spacious, modern kitchen on the other.

Comprising a traditional U-shaped layout, the kitchen will impress with its generous proportions, tiled feature wall, soft-close cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher.

Opposite, the dining room offers a refined space to entertain or just to enjoy family dinner, with timber dado panelling and a Norseman slow combustion fireplace adding style and warmth to the space.

The home features four large bedrooms with two at the front of the property and two towards the rear, located off the living area.

This means there's plenty of space for a large, growing family.

The bedrooms all have carpet underfoot and a relaxed, light and bright atmosphere that makes them the perfect, calm space for rest and relaxation.

The home has two contemporary bathrooms including one with a luxuriously deep, recessed bath with a shower feature, pedestal basin and linen cupboard, while the second bathroom has a shower and a sleek, modern vanity.

The home's long list of features doesn't end there, with plenty of under house storage, a 4,500 litre water tank and a separate shed at the rear of the property among other highlights.

Three-zone, ducted air conditioning and a double carport complete the attractive package.
