Freestanding, refurbished, and brilliantly placed between South Melbourne Market and Bay Street’s retail and dining mecca, this long-held Victorian cottage delivers a first-class city-fringe opportunity, offering immediate turnkey appeal and future scope to further enhance or extend on 124sqm (approx). Naturally bright and move-in ready, it places popular cafes, restaurants, transport, and the CBD within easy reach, making it an outstanding fit for owner-occupiers, investors, or buyers seeking a smart inner-city base with long-term upside.
High ceilings and a traditional arched hallway bring character from the outset, leading through the single-level layout to a light-filled living and dining domain at the rear with higher vaulted ceilings and sliding doors opening to a recently landscaped courtyard. Finished with red-brick paving and high-fenced privacy, the easy indoor-outdoor connection gives the entire home a fresh and inviting feel, complemented by a spacious kitchen with a gas-top stove and ample storage.
Two generous bedrooms with built-in robes, including one retaining its original ornate fireplace, are served by a sky-lit bathroom with laundry facilities, whilst recent upgrades, including as-new motorised security shutters, new carpets, re-planted gardens and a corrugated-iron roof, allow buyers to move straight in whilst planning what comes next. Held by the same owner for more than 50 years, it now represents an increasingly hard-to-find South Melbourne opportunity, delivering single-level ease, prized future scope and a location that only grows more sought-after with time.
