Overview

Classic Victorian within 1km to the Hospital Precinct and CBD

Set on a low maintenance allotment of 285 m2, this two-bedroom home along with study that may double as a third bedroom has been updated to appeal to those more particular amongst us. While set on a corner allotment with easy access, the home faces Urquhart Street for both pedestrian and driveway access. In addition, there is a shared driveway or ‘right of carriage-way’ facing Drummond Street South. Completely painted inside and out in recent years the home has a gorgeous porch entrance with lead lights windows. The home has polished timber board with carpets in the bedrooms. The master is larger yet the second bedroom is also large and the family bathroom is similarly proportioned to allow plenty of time and space to pamper yourself. The lounge is open to the meals area yet still private and snug. While there is an original open fireplace the home also has 2 reverse-cycle split systems along with a new hydronic gas heating system throughout the home. Most of the rooms, being original have ornate ceiling roses, detailed cornices and high ceilings. The kitchen is modern and very functional with stainless appliances, island bench, dishwasher, north facing window and open plan setting with the meals room facing East for wonderful morning sun. From the large timber windows and sliding doors the meals area opens onto a very substantial merbau timber decking that is elevated and overlooks the back yard. There is a new gate to allow secure parking along with a large shed for storage, workshop or also worth investigating as an old sewer appears to offer the potential to have an ensuite or powder room in one corner of the shed. The perfect first home, down sizer, Air BnB or a home in town, for a few nights of the week away from the big City. Call Tim to set up a time to inspect.
