Urban dream for foodies, families and renovators!
A stone's throw away from magnificent Hyde Park, this charming character cottage represents an unmissable opportunity for young professionals, keen renovators, or small families searching for convenient urban living.
The circa.1950 home enchants with its enclosed front gardens, picturesque bullnose veranda, and welcoming pedestrian gate. Step inside and be greeted by the warmth of Jarrah and Baltic pine floorboards, period sash windows adorned with practical roller shutters, and high ceilings that infuse the space with a sense of history and grace.
A cosy front lounge room features decorative ceilings, picture rails, and an ornamental fireplace that adds a delightful touch of antiquity, with split system air conditioning ensuring year-round comfort. The three generous bedrooms echo the home's character with character features such as fireplaces, traditional Jarrah boards, high ceilings, with air conditioning and built-in robes added for modern comforts.
The bathroom retains its original charm with a vintage terrazzo floor, pedestal basin, a bath, shower, and WC. There is also a versatile space that could serve as a study nook or a large internal storeroom. In the kitchen and meals area, find a 900mm gas hob, electric fan-forced oven, and ample cabinetry beneath and a raked timber-lined ceiling. Glass doors open to reveal a private outdoor area and domed pergola for alfresco entertaining.
Secure off-street parking includes a double garage with a sectional door and a large powered storeroom, and a single carport; plus, you'll benefit from two permits for street parking, making it ideal for guests. There's also an internal alarm system and CCTV cameras for added peace of mind.
Aside from the superb renovation potential, what sets this property apart is its fantastic location. You're within walking distance of leafy Hyde Park and playful Birdwood Square, and foodies will love the proximity to Sayers Sister and delicious Chu Bakery. Families will appreciate the closeness to Highgate Primary School, and secondary schools, including Mercedes College, St George Anglican School, and Trinity College. Nearby, the Mount Lawley and Leederville precincts await with ever-evolving shopping and dining options.
