Overview

Potential Rental Return $820 p/w

Configured as two private and character-filled apartments, this versatile 1890s corner terrace is tucked away in a peaceful enclave just behind the cosmopolitan hub of King Street. A superb investment prospect in an area of particularly high rental demand, it also offers an ideal residence for the multi-generational family or those seeking a home plus income opportunity in a prime North Newtown setting. Freestanding to one side and opening out to a leafy east-facing courtyard, it features the bonus of rear lane access. Each apartment features a private entry and offers a spacious living room, large bedroom, full bathroom and eat-in kitchen (one gas). Classic period features including high beamed ceilings and an original fireplace add charm and personality to the interiors which also offer the potential to make your mark and add value with a contemporary revamp. Quietly placed in a prized Newtown pocket, a brief stroll to Hollis Park, it's a leisurely stroll to the station, renowned theatres, buzzing cafes, eclectic boutiques and Sydney University.
