Properties like this don’t come along every day! This quaint, circa 1920’s cottage is in need of a full renovation and sits on a 570 sq.m block which has two street access.

The house, typical of its era, includes two bedrooms, kitchen, dining room, lounge, two-way bathroom and separate toilet and front bullnose veranda. There is a large area under the house which could be used as a rumpus area and which also includes a storage space. A detached, double garage is at the rear of the property. The house boasts many other original features including the stone fireplaces in the lounge and kitchen, pine floorboards, high ceilings, central breezeway, VJ walls and some fretwork. Later additions would be the pot-bellied stove and the ornate plaster cornices and ceiling in the dining room.

Being in the heart of New Farm, and a short bus trip and/or ferry ride from the C.B.D. and Southbank, the property is surrounded by all the amenities you could ask for in both your work and play whether your interest lies in the shopping of the James Street precinct, the nightlife of the Brunswick Street and the Mall or the quiet get together with friends and family in New Farm Park. There’s no mistaking that there is a lot of work to restore this home however the rewards will be reaped at the end. Or could the property be developed in some way (subject to Council approvals)? Do your homework and we will see you at the auction!
