The property itself has plenty of appeal, offering two blocks on separate titles that would provide an expansive inner city lifestyle for a family or a savvy addition to an investment portfolio.

A charming cottage, which sits on one of the titles, has been beautifully renovated to show off its raft of original features and period assets.

Soaring 3.4m ceilings throughout and a lovely neutral colour scheme make the rooms feel bright and spacious, while heritage elements including detailed cornices, high skirting boards and cast iron fireplaces (non-operational) add a touch of vintage elegance.

The house offers a versatile, family-friendly layout, with three oversized bedrooms at the front and two large living areas, as well as a lovely new eat-in kitchen to the rear.

The kitchen has been sympathetically renovated and styled to suit the period of the home, with black shaker-style soft-closing cabinetry and 30mm marble-look laminate benchtops, while stainless steel appliances add a more contemporary touch.

The polished original timber floorboards inject warmth and texture throughout the home with an authenticity that complements the homes timeless style, while traditional features including a freestanding clawfoot bath and chequered floor tiles give the three-year-old bathroom a vintage feel.

Both the master bedroom and the formal living/dining room feature stunning cast iron fireplaces with decorative mantles that, while non-operational, add a charming focal point to each room.

Large timber sash windows have been painted a crisp white to contrast against the lovely muted colours of the various walls, while also allowing plenty of natural light into each room. A large glass sliding door also helps to provide a connection between the rear kitchen and the adjoining covered and paved patio.

Rear shedding offers ample external storage, while a single carport and loose gravel driveway provide plenty of off-street parking.

A new Colorbond fence in sleek Monument grey divides the house block from the second title, with both featuring secure, fully fenced yards.
