Summary: Live Comfortably Now, Reimagine Tomorrow / Immediate Appeal with Outstanding Potential
Description: Behind the charming façade of this classic Victorian cottage lies a substantial home, rich in character and offering both immediate comfort and long-term potential. Larger than its heritage-style frontage suggests, this is a residence that can be enjoyed from day one, while leaving plenty of room to reimagine and modernise over time. The property unfolds across a series of well-proportioned spaces, beginning with two of the three impressively sized bedrooms. Serviced by a functional main bathroom with walk-in shower and plenty of storage, each bedroom benefits from built-in robes with two also boasting original fireplaces with period tiling. High ceilings and natural light reinforce the sense of scale throughout, as you extend through the formal living and dining space toward the rear, where a neatly presented u-shaped kitchen is met by a light-filled informal meals area, complete with breakfast bench and skylight. Outside through the quaint sunroom, a secluded and covered rear courtyard provides year-round entertaining space, offering private access to the third bedroom or optional home office, and the secure single garage, accessed via ROW, adds genuine convenience in this tightly held neighbourhood. Equally compelling is the location, with Nicholson Street and St Georges Road both within easy walking distance, and cafés, specialty stores, trams, and everyday amenities close at hand. The open spaces and trails of the Merri Creek parklands are also just moments away, delivering an enviable balance of urban energy and natural retreat to this enduring residence.
