There's loads of personality packed into this smartly renovated Islington cottage. Behind its classic weatherboard façade, the four-bedroom layout has been extended and reworked for modern life with two separate living areas, dedicated office space and a contemporary bathroom. Out back, north-easterly sun pours into a private garden with tropical-style landscaping, lawn and a spa made for year-round soaking under the stars. And with Bar Beach just 4km away, Islington Park 200m from the door and the suburb's retro stores around 150m away, the lifestyle credentials are every bit as appealing.
Dark timber floors and crisp white interiors keep things fresh, while high ceilings and original detailing hold onto the character you want in a home of this era. The kitchen brings a playful industrial edge with emerald green tiles, timber benchtops, open shelving, black framework and a freestanding Smeg cooker, all perfectly in step with its Islington surrounds. It connects easily with the dining area and lounge, while the rear extension gives the main bedroom a private position overlooking the garden, complete with wall-to-wall robes and sliding doors straight out to the spa. There's also a covered area off the office, giving you another quiet spot to sit outdoors.
This is the kind of location where walking quickly becomes the default. Head to Beaumont Street for coffee, dinner or drinks, browse Islington's vintage and retro stores, or jump on a train at nearby Hamilton Station. Character, colour and a cracking location give this cottage an individuality that feels right at home in Islington.
