Situated in this simply fabulous Cul-de-Sac location this absolutely adorable 1890's Weatherboard home has been brought into the 21st Century by the current owners.
With meticulous attention to detail, high-end finishes, and excellent taste this lovely home has been re-imagined into the perfect inner-city residence. As much of the original home as possible has been retained and with the addition of modern conveniences, an extremely liveable and desirable property has emerged.
Let's start with the Master Bedroom complete with an original fireplace, built-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom with under-floor heating. The second bathroom is large, has a separate shower recess, and a bath plus original shiplap on the wall. The 3rd bedroom/home office overlooking the rear garden and the dedicated laundry with plenty of storage area at the rear of the house.
The kitchen is a dream with an integrated refrigerator and freezer, dishwasher, stone benches, and plenty of cupboard space. The under-floor cellar with trapdoor, ladder and lighting is such a bonus. Rumour has it that the previous owner Attilio buried treasure in the cellar, but the current owners have never found it.
The open-plan living area leads through a wall of glass to a raised deck area with city glimpses. Perfect for a glass of wine in the evening or a leisurely breakfast. Very pretty front and rear gardens are reticulated from a bore and secure under-cover off-street parking is the icing on the cake.
The current owners have researched the home and discovered that it was one of the first houses in the street and the mail was first delivered in 1898. Apparently, a cow was housed in the storage shed at some stage - I can't imagine what the City of Vincent would think about that now. A photograph of Attilio standing outside the house in the 1960s is on the fireplace in the lounge and will remain with the home.
Those who are familiar with the ABC series The Heights will recognise the Deli on the corner of Myrtle Street.
So if you would like to purchase your own piece of history, don't miss this! If attending a viewing, please park on Palmerston Street.... thank you.
