Located on the city doorstep, this sweet little gem started life in the late 1890's as a humble miner's cottage before it was rescued and reborn some years ago.
Stripped back to the bare bones, it was subsequently skilfully renovated and extended to produce a character-filled three bedroom home offering all the benefits of a latte lifestyle.
An original-style paved path fringed with clipped privet hedges leads to the fretwork-trimmed front verandah and inside, parquetry timber flooring flows from the central hallway throughout the kitchen and split-level living room. Two good-sized front bedrooms include built-in robes; main adjoins the two-way bathroom with bath and shower while a separate vanity and wc allows for multiple users. Large central laundry includes storage and the third bedroom or study is conveniently located off the living area.
Light-filled kitchen is equipped with electric under-bench oven, gas hotplate, pantry and ample bench space while the lounge has a wall of north-facing glass with French doors to the compact rear garden complete with sun-drenched paved alfresco spot and garden shed.
Single off-street car parking is provided at the front but the you could easily manage without a vehicle and it makes a great home base for Melbourne commuters with the railway station just 500 metres away.
Live life on the edge of the city where you can walk to everywhere and make this sweet cottage your castle â?? it's perfect for singles, young couples or investors.
