This home reflects the charm of its early 1900s vintage with a central hallway and a four-room layout, featuring an ornamental fireplace in the shared wall of each room. Much of its original character remains, including Jarrah floorboards and beautiful high pressed tin ceilings. However, the industrial renegade styling propels this lovely home into the 21st century.

The two front bedrooms are generously proportioned, painted in bold colours or modern wallpaper, and highlighted by ornate tin ceilings and stripped-back plasterwork. One bedroom features a split-system air-conditioner, while both include robe recesses or storage options.

The lounge room, with its soaring 11ft ceilings, has another fireplace, as does the 3rd bedroom/dining space. Connected through double doors, the kitchen is simple, modern, and industrial, with zincalume sheeting, timber plywood panelling, feature brickwork, a freestanding gas oven and cooktop, a functional breakfast bar, and large picture windows overlooking the backyard. The bathroom continues the industrial theme with exposed natural materials and features a shower recess, toilet, and vanity.

A spacious attic has been thoughtfully installed, providing fantastic storage space, accessible via a neat concertina metal ladder folding into the attic from the 3rd bedroom/dining room.

The alfresco paved patio is framed by simple plantings and reticulated lawn. The backyard is fenced and includes several small garden sheds at the rear. From the front porch, you can see Midland’s town clock – a perfect spot to enjoy a drink after work and chat with friendly neighbours. Take a short walk to the river and the fantastic Woodbridge Riverside Park, shop in Midland, or hop on a train to the city. It’s all on your doorstep here.

This charming character cottage offers immense renovation potential and would suit an investor, a first homebuyer looking to step onto the property ladder, or any lover of vintage period homes.
