The early days in Blackheath would have been tough, a cool climate and isolation from Sydney meant the locals had to fend for themselves.
As a result there were several small coal mines in the Blackheath area run by the Blackheath Coal Company which ran from 1885-1897.
There were many small cottages built to house these miners and 67 Govetts Leap Road is one of them!
Typically these homes were a simple rectangle with a front door to the left resulting in a long corridor running past two bedrooms to the living area at the rear.
And here it is, exactly as described above but the big plus is that all the renovation work has been done.
This home is so sweet with a sunroom at the front, then two bedrooms off the corridor and the kitchen/ bathroom/laundry at the rear which then flows to the living area and French doors to the gardens.
The original internal boards are all there, as are the cute sash windows and the whole house has been modernised where you need it, fresh wiring, fresh kitchen and bathroom and French doors to the sweet garden with a lovely shady tree and a period correct shed with rear lane access.
Yes, it has rear lane access, rare as hens teeth in Blackheath which means you park from the rear of the property.
Did I mention the location? How does a short 4 minute stroll to the village centre sound?
Park the car for the weekend, wander up to the wine bar, a hatted restaurant, the pub or grab the wicker basket and head to the farmers markets on a Sunday!
This is your opportunity to really live the village life!
