Overview

Timeless character, outstanding location

Perfectly positioned, proportioned and presented, this weatherboard classic on a generous 322m² allotment (approx.) offers an exceptional opportunity to secure a charming period home just moments from everything Preston has to offer. Footsteps to Davis Park, tucked between High Street and Plenty Road, a short walk to the tram and enjoying easy access to Preston's market and station, it is zoned to Preston Primary and Preston High. Rich in original character, it showcases beautiful heritage features including soaring ceilings, an ornate fireplace, picture and plate rails, period lighting, decorative cornice, profiled skirting boards and stunning leadlight windows in an interior that will delight from the moment you step inside.
