A property in the CBD's sought-after residential area has proudly come onto the market! Built in early 1870s, this Victorian cottage surrounded by lovely cottage gardens is nestled in a tree-lined street. Step onto the freshly painted verandah, taking in the original lead light door surrounds, together with many other original features including Baltic pine floorboards, high ceilings with ceiling roses, timber fretwork, as well as two decorative fire places, one in the living area the other a cast iron fireplace in the main bedroom. Three double bedrooms are carpeted throughout with two featuring built-in robes. The spacious light-filled kitchen with island bench, pantry and gas appliances leads via an original vestibule door to the renovated bathroom and laundry featuring leadlight window and door along with generous storage including option for clothes dryer. From the small undercover back porch, meander down the garden path through the north-facing gardens with paved courtyard, to a quaint garden room/conservatory and double lock-up garage (7.8 x 6.2m) with additional driveway parking. An additional paved utility area and storage shed are tucked in at the rear of the property (ideal for a raised vegetable garden)!

Just a few minutes' walk to CBD, schools, shops, restaurants and public transport, this period property is well worth inspecting and investing in for the future.
