Overview

Victorian Charm On Pakington’s Doorstep

Nestled in the heart of Newtown’s vibrant café precinct and within the coveted Chilwell Primary School zone, this beautiful Victorian cottage blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by timber floors, soaring ceilings, and decorative fireplaces that speak to the home’s admiral heritage. The interior is tastefully presented with a crisp neutral palette. The open plan kitchen, meals, and living area forms the heart of the home, bathed in natural light from a full wall of windows and elegant French doors. This airy space flows seamlessly to a paved courtyard and timber deck, ideal for alfresco entertaining or a quiet morning coffee. The versatile floorplan includes three generous bedrooms, while the two-way bathroom offers ample storage, a combined shower and bath, and a cleverly concealed European style laundry. Additional key features include split system air conditioning and dishwasher. At the rear, a private laneway provides secure access to a detached single garage, an increasingly rare asset in this tightly held neighbourhood. Beyond the home, the location speaks for itself, moments from Pakington Street’s shops, café’s and restaurants, close to Kardinia Park, and just a short stroll to parks and public transport. Perfectly positioned for young families, professionals, or downsizers looking for lifestyle and location, 71 Saffron Street offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the best of Newtown in a home full of warmth, charm, and contemporary convenience.
