A Hidden Gem
85 Finniss Street, Marion
You know there's history in a home when the surrounding streets are named after a former owner of the property. This 'hidden gem' symmetrical cottage is circa 1910 and still stands proudly overlooking the district of Marion almost a hundred and ten years later.
The home is in fantastic condition with only minimal aesthetic maintenance required. It's the epitome of character and charm and boasts immaculate polished floor boards, high ceilings, elegant windows, ornate fireplaces and the original wood fired kitchen stove.
The property is steeped in history and of significance to the origins of the Marion area. However, there is no heritage listing restrictions so you can renovate or upgrade subject only to normal council permissions.
A two bedroom home, with the second bedroom currently furnished as a formal dining room, there is flexibility based on your needs. The bathroom and kitchen have seen some renovations and upgrades over the years affording you all the modern conveniences. The sunroom at the rear of the home offers an additional living space with a beautiful eastern aspect looking out to the rear garden.
Outside you'll discover a generous outdoor entertaining area, a manageable lawn and a well-planned garden. Beautifully established and maintained the yard boasts some formal hedging, neat paving and an amazing array of fruiting trees. All contained on a great sized 520sqm allotment. The property is set back from Finniss Street and has privacy, peace and quiet in this location. With undercover parking for one car and off street parking for three others.
Conveniently located the property is a short walk of only 4 minutes from Westfield...
