SOLD by Claude Iaconi | Edison Property. Get the right advice. Get yours sold too.Claude Iaconi of Edison Property presents a c.1908 residence where timeless character, contemporary comfort and an enviable inner-city lifestyle exist in perfect harmony.There is something undeniably romantic about a century-old home.Perhaps it's the craftsmanship of another era. The reassuring solidity of timber beneath your feet. The quiet confidence of proportions that have stood the test of time. Or perhaps it's knowing that while cities evolve around them, homes such as these become ever more treasured.Beyond its charming Federation facade, this c.1908 freestanding cottage unfolds with remarkable grace, revealing interiors that respectfully honour the past while embracing the ease of modern living. Original jarrah floorboards guide you through the classic hallway, where two beautifully proportioned bedrooms introduce a home rich in warmth, authenticity and understated elegance.The lounge, anchored by its original fireplace, is a space to retreat, read or simply enjoy the stillness that belies its remarkably central location. Beyond, the home gently transforms into a contemporary living environment where an smartly renovated kitchen, appointed with stone bench tops, quality appliances and gas cooking, flows effortlessly into the open dining space.Then comes the surprise.Expansive bi-fold doors peel away to blend the indoors and out, inviting the living spaces onto a generous covered timber deck that becomes a natural extension of the home. Sheltered, private and framed by established greenery, it is a setting equally suited to long summer lunches, intimate dinner parties or peaceful mornings with coffee beneath the trees. An outdoor shower, rear right-of-way access and a lush garden complete what feels like a secluded sanctuary hidden within the city.Yet for all its tranquillity, one of Perth's most vibrant lifestyles lies quite literally at your doorstep.Morning walks through Hyde Park. Coffee at Toms Providore. Evenings discovering new wine bars, intimate restaurants and live music in Northbridge. A leisurely stroll into the CBD for work, culture or entertainment. Here, the car becomes optional as one of Perth's most celebrated urban neighbourhoods unfolds around you.Homes of this calibre are becoming increasingly scarce-not because they are no longer built, but because they are tightly held. Thoughtfully preserved, recently updated and occupying one of the city's most coveted heritage streets, this residence represents far more than an outstanding property purchase. It is an opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Perth's inner story.HIGHLIGHTS/ Beautifully preserved period character complemented by tasteful contemporary enhancements./ Original jarrah floorboards and traditional central hallway./ Two generous bedrooms filled with natural light./ Elegant lounge room with fireplace./ Sleek kitchen with stone bench tops, gas cooking and quality finishes./ Open-plan dining flowing seamlessly outdoors through expansive bi-fold doors./ Covered timber entertaining deck overlooking a lush private garden./ Updated bathroom blending contemporary comfort with timeless style./ Attic storage with convenient pull-down ladder./ Air conditioned./ Rear right-of-way access./ Outdoor shower nestled amongst the landscaped surrounds./ Residential parking permits available./ Structural and timber pest inspection reports available to genuine buyers./ Water: $2,256.48 p.a.
