2 Bedroom House in McGregor

EXCLUSIVE MANDATE: Pear Tree Cottage is a beautifully restored historic cottage in McGregor, thoughtfully extended to create a warm and character-filled residence. Set on a generous 1,149 m² stand, the property enjoys lovely views of the McGregor mountains. The western side of Barry Street is lined with historic cottages that reflect the areas heritage.

The new addition was built using sustainable cob construction, with stone-packed foundations and timber lintels. The original cottage now serves as a cozy lounge with a fireplace, flowing into an open-plan kitchen and living area. The kitchen includes a separate scullery and an AGA stove, while stacking doors open the living space to an outdoor entertainment area. The home offers two bedrooms, including a main en-suite, a second bathroom, a guest toilet, and an outdoor shower built from dry-packed stone.

The property also includes a range of off-grid features, such as solar panels with an inverter and batteries, rainwater harvesting tanks, a large underground water storage tank, and a greywater treatment system.
