A property that introduced a modern aesthetic to a primarily period streetscape when it was first built, this c1970s interpretation of a single fronted, free-standing cottage now creates a hugely rewarding scope to capture its classically comfortable original spaces and consider options to retain and renovate or re-invent and replace, STCA, on a block offering significant benefits. The natural advantage of a northerly rear aspect, the potential for right-of-way access from Elizabeth Street and proximity to Leo Hoffman Reserve, Newport Lakes Reserve, Challis Street shops and Mason Street village as well as being walking distance to Newport Station add to the impetus for making the most of this enticing opportunity.
Paved expanses for off street parking and a façade that has all the hallmarks of its era precede a series of impeccably preserved spaces commencing with two double bedrooms, each featuring built-in robes. The central bathroom's separate bath and shower, traditional tiles and spotless presentation highlight the authenticity of a home that conveys tempting time capsule character throughout.
The mood of retro integrity is further revealed by a living room where an exposed brick feature wall, reverse cycle heating/cooling and pleasing proportions lead to a separately zoned dining domain and an adjoining kitchen featuring its own exposed brick, original tiles, fitted cabinetry and functional appliances. The look is immediately identifiable, the feel is instantly evocative. Beyond, a separate laundry completes the indoor picture before a paved courtyard catches the northern sun and concludes with the right-of-way access.
A landmark in its own way, offering originality that ensures current day enjoyment as well as opening up a world of possibilities for the future, STCA, this unique property awaits its next phase, however you choose to define it.
