Step into a piece of Geelong's history with this circa 1872 double fronted timber cottage, nestled in the heart of Newtown and zoned for Chilwell Primary School. This charming residence exudes character and warmth, offering four bedrooms (4th currently an office), two living and dining areas and a generously renovated family bathroom, and an additional second shower room for convenience. The spacious living/dining area opens out to the garden and inground pool (with heat pump). A second lounge provides extra space for family activities or quiet relaxation. The updated kitchen with 900mm oven/cooktop and dishwasher caters to both practicality and style, making it a delightful hub for culinary endeavours. Split systems to each room for individual heating and cooling and gas log fire to the living/dining.

Outside, the north-facing rear yard features an undercover entertaining area, ideal for alfresco dining throughout the seasons. The low-maintenance gardens and grass area ensure ease of upkeep, while a convenient electric gate provides secure off-street parking. A small garden shed adds additional storage, and there's a grassy play area for children to enjoy.

Location is paramount, and this property excels in that regard. Situated on a generous allotment of approximately 567m2, it is within easy walking distance to the vibrant cafes and boutiques of Pakington Street, the excitement of Kardinia Park, and the serene beauty of the Barwon River. Newtown's finest primary and secondary schools are also nearby, making it an ideal location for families.
