Perfectly positioned opposite Forrest Park in one of Highgate's most picturesque and connected pockets, this charming three-bedroom, one-bathroom character cottage captures the essence of timeless beauty and urban convenience. Set on a generous yet manageable 500sqm block, it delivers the rare combination of serenity, charm, and city-fringe living-moments from the vibrant heart of Beaufort Street.
Behind a red brick façade adorned with intricate tuckpointing and an iron roof that shelters a sun-drenched front verandah, the home reveals all the hallmarks of refined Federation character. A stained glass entry opens to a wide arched hallway, where soaring decorative ceilings, oversized sash windows, and glowing Jarrah floorboards radiate warmth and soul. High skirting boards, original Oregon doors, and period features wrap each space in quiet elegance, from the cosy front lounge to the three generously sized bedrooms, and the home's classic family bathroom.
At its heart, an open-plan living, kitchen and dining area invites casual connection. With pine-panelled ceilings and expansive glazing, this rear extension is filled with natural light and seamlessly links to the lush outdoors. Whether you're hosting family or unwinding in solitude, this central hub offers generous proportions and thoughtful flow-ready for you to move in or reimagine over time.
Outside, the lifestyle continues. A herringbone-laid recycled brick alfresco overlooks lovingly tended gardens-with mature trees, seasonal colour, and a showstopping frangipani tree. From quiet coffees at sunrise to golden-hour gatherings beneath the trees, both front and rear outdoor spaces flow beautifully through every season and occasion.
Just 400m from the heart of Beaufort Street, step out from your urban haven and into the vibrant rhythm of Highgate. Whether it's coffee, cuisine, cocktails or a night at the theatre, everything you crave is waiting at the end of your street. With city-bound transport close at hand and everyday essentials within easy reach, this is character-filled inner-city living-defined by elegance, elevated by ease, and shaped by lifestyle.
