Fronted in stone behind an idyllic bullnose veranda and secure fencing, this C1900 symmetrical cottage plays its period charm perfectly in the thick of cosmopolitan West Croydon.
The picture-book frontage is only the opening act of a footprint that begins with four original rooms, each generous in size, framed by fireplaces, pine floorboards and gloriously high ceilings.
A wide hallway keeps all four rooms in good company, with ceiling fans whirring quietly overhead and built-in robes in two of the three bedrooms. Further in, the living area leans on the cosy comfort of a combustion fire, while a picture window frames climbing ivy, a leafy mural brought to life.
Careful to keep in step with the motif, a modernised main bathroom nods to the era with chequered flooring, stained glass and a corner tub ready to help you wind down at the end of the day.
Beyond it, the dine-in kitchen has been beautifully updated, sage splashback tiling adding a fresh pop of colour against modern stainless-steel appliances, another ideally placed picture window looking out to the surprisingly large backyard.
Outside, palm-fringed lawns wrap around with room to bask in the sun or stretch your legs, while a veranda set back to the rear takes in the full beauty of the block.
Step beyond the gate and West Croydon takes care of the rest. Eclectic homes old and new line buzzing urban streets that lead to Queen Street cafés and endless amenities, all at your beck and call.
Stone-fronted character with lawns to spare and the city a train ride away - welcome to old-world soul with a new-world social calendar.
