Overview

Charming Renovated Cottage with Flexible Living & Income Potential

***Currently rented until December 2026 - inspections by appointment only*** Positioned in the popular and sought-after inner-north, directly opposite Corroboree Park's leafy green space, 38 Paterson Street presents a beautifully restored cottage that blends timeless character with the comfort and convenience of modern living. Thoughtfully configured into two fully self-contained residences, the property offers exceptional versatility for families, multigenerational living, or investors. The main home features two bedrooms and two bathrooms, while a separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit provides additional living or income opportunities. The main residence has been renovated from top to bottom and is filled with natural light. Spacious open-plan living and dining areas flow into a crisp white kitchen, creating a welcoming hub of the home. Two generously sized bedrooms include a master with a stylish ensuite, while the second bedroom is serviced by the main bathroom. At the rear, the fully renovated one-bedroom unit offers complete independence-ideal for extended family, older children, a home office or business, long-term rental, or Airbnb income. Adding further value is a bonus studio currently under construction at the back of the property. With plumbing, electrics and partitioned walls already installed, the space is ready for completion and offers endless possibilities-whether as an art studio, hobby room, golf simulator, or additional storage. A perfect opportunity for a savvy buyer to finish the project and unlock the property's full potential. Enjoy a premium lifestyle location within easy walking distance of Braddon and the City.
