Last Listing description (February 2023)

This gorgeous circa 1860's brick cottage retains the character of days past, with a contemporary renovation and is only a 5 minute walk to the inner CBD or Salamanca precinct.

The cottage was believed to be built as a stable for a nearby historic building which offers stunning character features. Now renovated, the property has an enclosed courtyard and the convenience of a private inner-city location. The home has a north-easterly aspect with good natural light and sun into the courtyard and balcony.

Downstairs features an open plan living and ultra-stylish kitchen area with an adjacent bathroom/laundry and separate powder room. French doors open out onto the enclosed private courtyard shaded by an ancient ornamental grapevine which covers the terrace and creates the perfect outdoor space.

Up the golden timber stairs are two bedrooms, with one that opens onto a sunny balcony where you can enjoy a cup of tea and take in the views of the city in the afternoon sun.

Heating includes a reverse cycle heat pump and woodfire for those cosy winter nights. The property has two open spaces and a carport for a third vehicle with direct access to the home for ease.

This perfect inner-city retreat would ideally suit a professional couple, investors or those looking to downsize.
