There's History Here... But No Heritage!

Auction | Saturday 12th August at 12:00pm On site

Located at the city end of Ainslie, where property comes up oh so rarely, this gorgeous, extended character cottage has been in the one family for almost forty years. High ceilings, picture rails and timber sash windows evoke a bygone era and add enormous charm, whilst the delightfully sunny (north facing) family room (with in slab heating) makes for year round comfort.

There's also 3 bedrooms, a separate formal lounge, a study nook and updated bathroom and kitchen making this a larger than average home for the suburb. As part of the renovation in the 90's, the walls and ceiling were insulated giving this cottage greater energy efficiency than most. There is reverse cycle cooling and two slow combustion fireplaces (currently capped but easily returned to working order) and these, combined with the in slab make this a very cosy home. Car accommodation is well catered for by a carport and oversized single garage (with automatic door) and the artist or handyman will love the large studio/workshop space at the rear.

The home has great street appeal and the gardens are as neat as a pin with a lovely, private north facing backyard. The almost 800m2 block means that there is tonnes of further potential and the location, just a stone's throw from wonderful Corroboree Park is perfect and falls just outside the Heritage Precinct meaning that there are no heritage restrictions on what you do.

Imagine long Sunday family brunches in the park or simply stroll into Braddon for dinner and drinks (and not have to worry about parking).
