Ideally situated just a few steps from the popular Semaphore Road Cafe district and only a short stroll to the attractions of Semaphore Beach, this enchanting circa 1910 built single fronted worker’s cottage waiting for you to fulfil your dreams and write the next chapter in its already 105 year history.

Situated amongst other attractive period homes, the compact but still more than ample allotment includes valuable rear road access. The unique press metal faade emulates the brickwork of its era and combines beautifully with the well preserved associate period features that give the home so much charisma and sheltered by its welcoming front porch which is so beautifully adorned by its original fretwork.

As you step inside the ceiling height, polished pine floorboards and original hall arch combine to convey a hospitable atmosphere. The gas space heated living room which could easily be converted to become the main bedroom, located at the front of the home is exceptionally spacious for such a cottage. generously proportioned main bedroom contains a full wall of built in robes and like the balance of the rest of the home, the advantage of ducted air-conditioning. the second bedroom is a more compact affair but serves the purpose and or could make an excellent study.

In the heart of the home is an open Kitchen/Family room where you can sit down to enjoy meals being warmed in front of the combustion style wood fire. The kitchen also offers the creature comforts of an existing plumbed in fridge (negotiable inclusion) and a dishwasher. The walk-in pantry provides an abundance of storage for all those essential cooking ingredients. The Kitchen/Family room area has been previously modified to encompass a family orientated living atmosphere where meals can be enjoyed in the warmth of fellowship and the wood fire.
The wet areas of the home comprise bathroom, laundry and separate WC are serviceable but in time would benefit from refurbishment or possibly incorporated into a small extension designed to enhance the lifestyle and value of your investment.

The slightly sunken garden area is surprisingly generous with plenty of room for friends to gather and contains an abundantly laden lemon tree along with a fine plum tree plus the workshop and the rear access carport. Enjoy the relaxing atmosphere in your low maintenance gardens in private, drinking home made lemonade with the plump fruit picked fresh from your bountiful lemon tree.

Keep your electricity bills lower and help save the environment with the substantial 3KW Solar system.
