Situated on a generous 760m2 block in an increasingly sought-after suburb, this rustic four-bedroom Symetrical Cottage comes complete with Heritage shop front and is a renovator’s dream. With the nostalgic charm of the original façades still intact, it needs a labour of love to truly shine.

The shop sits slightly ahead of the house and features two angled display areas, office and storeroom. Given the increase in home business operations, it presents an opportunity for you to potentially operate a business from home without customers having to access the family home.
Even if you simply wish to restore it as part of the house, it’s a handsome building and draws the eye – a worthy addition to a wide, leafy street that features several beautifully restored old properties.

The house is distinguished by the ornate plaster mantelpieces and high ceilings of a bygone era. Of the four spacious bedrooms, three come with the original fireplaces – non-working, but they can certainly be restored for functional and/or aesthetic value. The large front lounge includes access to the shop and has a gas heater (installed in the old fireplace) and A/C wall unit. The bathroom is basic, with a separate toilet located to the rear of the house. The spacious kitchen/dining area has wooden floorboards, gas cooktop and kitchen bench. A sprawling sunroom to the rear overlooks the backyard.

Outdoors, a tiled path leads through the large, rambling backyard filled with trees and shrubbery. A huge garage/workshop that could comfortably accommodate three vehicles. Other features include a rainwater tank and garden shed.
