As cute as a button on its corner plot, this c.1890 symmetrical cottage reveals one quirky surprise after another to make it a dream come true for professionals, creatives, downsizers and single-child families alike in search of something familiar - and a little different on the city's eclectic edge.
Step in and all is what it seems. Polished timber floors under lofty ceilings. Two equally spacious, light-filled bedrooms with one ornate fireplace a piece.
Then, everything changes. The ceilings rake like a mini cathedral at a central sitting room that stretches the entire width of this extensively renovated home. A special space in its own right.
But it gets even better.
What was the original exterior stone wall - with brick quoin windows, is now the internal feature wall to an open-plan family room. The first glimpse of the gorgeous rear gardens.
With crazy paving underfoot, stainless-steel appliances, rich timber cabinetry, loads of storage and a breakfast bar, the kitchen is rustic, slick and super-functional in the same breath.
Exhale in a rear yard with an entertainer's pergola, a festoon-lit patio (ready for a fire pit), a double garage leading to your rear lane and a semi-enclosed pavilion made for summer dinners and drinks that spill late into the night. Enjoy slow summer days beneath the grapevine - ideal for long lunches or a hammock and a book, and quiet winter mornings with coffee in the sunshine.
And then there's Brompton - the city-fringe suburb that never sits still. Caught in a creative crosswind between old and new, it's where repurposed warehouses, art-clad laneways and indie coffee nooks share the grid with timeworn cottages and friendly local pubs.
From here, your commute is a breeze, the Bowden train and tram stops are just moments away, Plant 4 is your extended pantry, and a quick pedal lands you in the CBD. It's not just close to the action - it is the action.
