Last Listing description (May 2025)

Last sold in 1986, there's no doubting the best years are still in front of this C1900 single-fronted cottage with an enviable south-north orientation, rear lane access and Rose Park's golden city-fringe lifestyle attached.

Largely original in its presentation; the strong, freestanding bones of this heritage home make it the perfect candidate for a cosmetic reincarnation. One worthy of its prestigious position facing the wide, peaceful expanses of Watson Avenue.

Unleash the floorboards from their carpet-covered slumber, give its high ceilings and impressive hallway arch a new lick of paint and the original section of this free-flowing home will have a new lease on life.

No need to change the footprint; a modern ensuite and a rear extension were added to this enduring home with a spacious formal lounge at its heart.

Featuring timber-clad walls, beamed ceilings, corked floors and a super-functional open-plan kitchen, the rear addition is a warm and inviting space with French-doored access to the quaint rear garden setting.

Replacing the existing addition with a bolder and bigger version feels like a matter of when, not if, for this beautifully placed home with a lock-up garage and carport, just a stroll from Rose Park Primary School and Kindergarten, Dulwich village, Victoria Park and the city's East End. Let the best years begin.

More to love:

- Tightly held by the one family for decades
- What it lacks in width makes up for it with a wonderfully deep parcel and internal footprint
- Prized rear lane access to lock-up carport and garage
- Flexible floorplan with multiple living zones
- Zoned for Marryatville High School and Rose Park Primary School
- Soaring ceilings throughout
- Updated ensuite bathroom
- Loads of storage and separate laundry
- Established low maintenance gardens
- Set amongst other gorgeous character homes
- Just 5 minutes to the CBD
- Strolling distance to The Parade
- Moments to newly developed Burnside Village
