Set on a wider-than-usual block (land approx 297sqm), this freestanding period home presents a unique inner-urban lifestyle opportunity with its timeless charm, impressive enhancements and direct access to Sydney Street behind.

A terrific mix of classic and contemporary, the home's elegant interior comprises two generous bedrooms (both with built-in robes) and dedicated study/home office all complemented by a spotless bathroom and additional (second) WC. Add to this a wide light-filled living room flowing through to the open dining area adjoined by a stylish timber-bench kitchen complete with stainless-steel cooking appliances and Bosch dishwasher. Other stand-out features include hydronic heating and split-system air conditioning (x3), along with high ornate ceilings and leadlight windows, solid timber floors, alarm system and large laundry.
