Bristling with potential and waiting to be returned to its former glory, this Mount Helena cottage boasts high ceilings, timber floors, a classic front verandah and a paved outdoor entertaining area set under a high gable roof. A built-in porch with a large main bedroom at one end expands the original 1956 floorplan to deliver flexibility and the starting point for an impressive transformation.
An open-plan family room and meals area flow into a good-sized kitchen with ample storage and a central, timber-topped island and breakfast bar. There is plenty to work with and inspire; multiple access points leading to paved paths and through gardens, original cornices and a deco-style ceiling rose in the kitchen, generous proportions. Tradies and anyone with vision and a willingness to dig in will see immediately the charming cottage waiting to be revealed.
Set in an idyllic Hills location with pockets of what was once a more extensive garden in place, the home is within walking distance of local schools, a short drive from arterial roads and moments from Mount Helena town centre. Look to the future and a charmed life in a charming property.
Please note this is a Proposed Lot and not yet titled. This property is identified as Lot 210. Titles are expected to be issued August 2023.
