The home offers 72m of internal living, comprising:
- Two bedrooms
- Previously updated bathroom
- Separate living room with reverse cycle air-conditioning

The cottage is comfortably habitable and ready for restoration, allowing you to live in or lease while planning future improvements. A single garage, believed to be original to the home, remains in place, along with a later-added single carport (not formally approved).

Importantly, the property is protected by a heritage overlay, preserving the historic streetscape and architectural character that makes Ainslie so desirable. Extensions and improvements are possible with the appropriate approvals, and many surrounding homes have been successfully extended at the rear in a sympathetic manner, maintaining the original frontage while creating contemporary living spaces.

Surrounded by mature trees and established gardens, this is a property for buyers who understand the long-term value of heritage, land size, and irreplaceable location - just minutes from the Canberra CBD, Dickson precinct, Corroboree Park and Mount Ainslie Reserve.

Key features:
- Late-1930s double-brick heritage cottage

- Original period features including milk delivery door
