The Snapshot
What makes 107 Close Street so compelling is the rare way it holds its original character without compromise. The combustion fireplace, leadlight kitchen windows, clawfoot bath and original hardwood floors are not touches of nostalgia bolted onto a renovated shell - they are the home, quietly confident in the role they play.
The Home
Framed by a white picket fence, arched verandah details and lush established gardens, 107 Close Street announces itself as something a little different long before you step through the door.
This 1920s weatherboard cottage has been loved - and it shows. High ceilings, decorative cornices and rich dark hardwood timber floors run throughout, establishing a sense of character that simply cannot be manufactured. The home is warm, considered and full of personality, with modern comforts woven through without disturbing what makes it special.
The main living room is the cottage at its finest: a combustion fireplace with a feature stone wall sits at the centre of the room, flanked by classic windows and finished with a chandelier pendant overhead. The galley kitchen stays true to its heritage while working hard for everyday use. Leadlight windows bring warmth and light, while the appliances provide the modern function.
Opening from the kitchen, the second living and dining area is the home's social heart. French doors on two sides open directly onto the alfresco, giving the space a breezy, connected feel that works equally well for weekday dinners and weekend gatherings.
Three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, with built-in wardrobes in bedrooms one and two. The fourth bedroom or study offers excellent flexibility as a home office, guest room, or creative space.
The bathroom features a clawfoot bath with overhead shower sits beneath a skylight, creating a space with personality and practicality. A separate powder room and internal laundry complete the amenities.
Outside, a generous alfresco deck sits beneath a pergola for year-round dining and easy entertaining. Beyond the deck, an established lawn, stone-edged garden beds and secure timber fencing give the 479sqm block a lush, private feel that celebrates the seasons.
The powered studio is one of the property's standout extras and a flexible space suited to creative pursuits, a home office, a workshop, a music room, or additional storage, depending on where life takes you.
107 Close Street is a home with authentic character, modern comfort and a lifestyle that's hard to replicate.
