Character Cottage on Gigantic Block of 1133m2

Auction | Saturday 23rd February at 10:00am On site

This charming original 1930's double brick cottage is a diamond in the rough. A veritable city commuter home, located a short walk from the Ainslie shops and moments from several schools, buses, inner city dining and much, much more. With a gigantic flat block of 1,133m2 there is huge opportunity to add further amenity to this home and capitalise on your investment.

Enter via the charming covered porch into the separate entry. As you walk through the house you'll feel the calm of the double brick construction, high battened ceilings, picture rails, beautiful timber sash windows, and solid polished timber floors. The bygone sturdy construction and period architectural features add character to the home not found in today's buildings.

The living room has its original fireplace still in working order. This and the original mantelpiece are not commonly found in many buildings of similar vintage. Lucky you!

The large master bedroom with built-in robe has great views of the garden through its attractive timber windows. Off the hallway, which contains built in storage cupboards, are two further spacious bedrooms with timber floors, high battened ceilings and sash windows.

The eat-in kitchen still has its original mantel. The separate laundry is located nearby. An extension at this point offers the potential to open up the rear of the house, taking advantage of the northerly aspect to the side boundary.

Outside is a huge garden with trees along the fence line.

A character filled home combined with the lifestyle of the nearby Ainslie shops and cafes and the potential for future extension.
