Authentically urban, this solid Hawthorn brick Victorian worker's cottage represents an outstanding opportunity for investors, period renovators and new market entrants to acquire a north-facing slice of Melbourne's history. In a premium position between the expanses of Albert Park Lake and the vibrancy of Clarendon St, the home ensures you a lifestyle without peer, just a short tram ride from the CBD for either work or for pleasure, but also provides you the rare privilege of a leisurely stroll to Bridport Street cafes, the bars and eateries of Clarendon Street and then to retreat for a lap of the lake or some fresh air along the waterfront. Enriched by high ceilings with well-preserved roses, finely detailed cornices and a traditional hallway arch, the home flows past its 2 bedrooms - each with original fire places - to a contemporised and enlightened open-plan rear. Filled with northerly light, the kitchen / meals / living is larger than you'd expect and opens to a paved rear courtyard where yours is the opportunity to make some changes and reinstitute the car access if you choose (STCA). Apartment buyers will note the freedoms and the economics of an absence of Body Corporate, while the scope for improvement at your leisure will certainly appeal to those with a longer-term perspective.
