A fine example of Italianate style architecture, this freestanding Victorian villa was built in 1880 when the suburb first developed with the establishment of the train line and Newington College and has been held by one family for decades. Standing tall and proud on the edge of Enmore Road's dining and cultural hub, 'Kingston' proudly showcases the grand proportions and refined features of its heritage on a prime dual access 197sqm approx. Updated where it counts but still with so much potential, the two-storey home opens out to a north-east facing courtyard with plenty of room to extend at the rear (STCA). Featuring rear access via Cavendish Lane to secure parking, this is a unique chance to secure a piece of history in one of the inner-west's best spots within easy reach of Newtown, the University of Sydney and Enmore Park and 750m to the station for an easy trip into the city.
