Set on an easy care 243sqm block, the picturesque Gardenia Cottage on Railway Parade is an exciting find in the thriving heart of Maylands. Built in 1912, this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home has been meticulously cared for throughout its life offering traditionally crafted features including polished timber floors, sash windows, tall skirting boards, opulent pendant lighting, picture rails and soaring 3.5 metre high ceilings with original cornices and ceiling roses throughout the lounge, hallway and bedrooms.
