Positioned directly opposite the beautiful Cruikshank Park, this unique timber home offers a rare opportunity to embrace a lifestyle where nature is quite literally on your doorstep. Private, leafy and wonderfully secluded, the setting feels more like a country retreat than an inner-west address, yet all the attractions of Yarraville are only moments away.
Full of warmth, character and genuine personality, this charming two-bedroom home has a cosy lodge-like atmosphere that is increasingly difficult to find. High ceilings, leadlight windows, original ceiling rosettes, decorative cornices and picture rails celebrate the home's individuality, while a large lounge room with an open fireplace creates a wonderfully inviting heart to the home.
The functional kitchen enjoys a beautiful outlook across the parklands and includes a dishwasher, while the central family bathroom services the two generous bedrooms, both enhanced by lovely bay windows. A step-down dining room connects seamlessly with the rear garden, creating a distinctive sense of space and character while taking full advantage of the home's north-facing backyard.
Outside, established and mature gardens frame both the front and rear of the property, with an abundance of native plantings complementing the surrounding parklands. The result is a peaceful, private sanctuary filled with greenery, birdsong and natural light.
Adding further versatility is a fully powered rear workshop/studio, ideal for those seeking a creative space, home office, studio or additional storage. Off-street parking adds everyday practicality.
For those who appreciate the home's existing charm, there is plenty of scope to restore, personalise and make it your own. For others, the exceptional park-side position presents an exciting opportunity to consider a future renovation or rebuild (STCA). Imagine creating a brand new residence here, with expansive windows opening directly towards the greenery, walking trails and uninterrupted park outlook, a truly special setting in the heart of Yarraville.
And the lifestyle is hard to beat. Enjoy an easy walk to Central Square Shopping District, Yarraville Village and Yarraville train station, while Kingsville Primary School sits conveniently at the end of Cruikshank Park.
Full of personality, warmth and genuine connection to nature, this is a home for buyers looking for something a little different - a charming timber retreat in one of Yarraville's most enviable positions.
