Hidden away behind a quaint picket fence in a highly desirable “Inner City” Newtown location on a large 1,012m2 block approximately 1km to both Grand Central and Clifford Gardens Shopping Centre’s and within walking distance to St Marys College, St Ursula’s College and Child Care Centre, the charm this gorgeous character cottage has to offer will immediately have you falling in love from the moment you step inside.
Perfectly orientated with a South facing covered front timber verandah and an under roof North facing rear deck, once inside the old has been tastefully blended with the new having been fully renovated/updated to work sympathetically with features you come to expect from a home of this era such as the soaring high ceilings, timber fret work and beautiful polished floors, creating the perfect blend of modern convenience with old world charm.
With a bedroom sized living room at the front of the home divided by traditional fret work and balustrading generous enough in size to serve as a formal sitting room, TV room or office space, entering into the rear of the home you find yourself in the spacious and bright open plan living/dining room featuring chair rails with VJ panelling below. The focal point of this living space is the stunning recently renovated kitchen featuring stone benchtops with breakfast bar, dual ovens, appliance hideaway and dishwasher. Opening onto the living space from all aspects, this makes this the ideal kitchen to prepare food and beverages in whilst entertaining family and friends.
Offering three built-in bedrooms (main with walk-in wardrobe), the air-conditioned master bedroom also enjoys its own access into the two-way bathroom with shower and bathtub. Adjacent to the bathroom via the second entrance is the homes separate toilet. Given the way the home has been thoughtfully and professionally extended/renovated, if you are in need of a home with a second bathroom, fourth bedroom or both, the home easily and cost effectively lends itself to accommodate these additions.
Having over its life been re-stumped, rewired, re-plumbed and re-guttered and set on a large fully fenced block with rear yard access, extra-large and powered two car detached shed with workshop/storage space, a second separate workshop/storage shed and rainwater tanks, this home is well worth your time to inspect if you are in the market for a quality character home in a convenient and desirable Newtown location.
