Enjoy a vibrant Cooks Hill lifestyle at this classic terrace that offers wonderful privacy behind secure fencing yet is positioned moments from the thick of the action gifting you instant access to a smorgasbord of dining, coffee, and boutique shopping, with the beach, city and harbour in easy reach.
A previous extension and updates make this feel like a modern home with the lounge room on entry, the kitchen at its heart, and the bathroom at the rear with the two bedrooms and study upstairs. There is a sense of future potential here with a deep backyard and rear access via a right of way off Bull Street.
If you need inspiration, just look to your next door neighbour, who has extended their property to add an extra bedroom and bathroom plus a garage at the rear. It's easy to see what you could also achieve here subject to council approval. That said, this home is easily liveable or lettable for today and is currently returning $530 per week.
