Superbly located on the fringe of the inner west a skip and a jump to the CBD, this generous single fronted cottage will excite those thrilled by the thought of renovating and updating a charming character home that's positively bursting with potential.
Well situated alongside a residents' only laneway, step foot through a timeless stained-glass entry and be greeted with classic familiarity such as soaring ceilings, lovely solid timber floors, heritage fireplaces, and a remarkably spacious footprint that sees two large bedrooms as well as a lofty formal lounge opening to a central formal dining for unexpected entertaining potential.
An original yet light-filled kitchen area helms the end of the home but the surprises don't stop here. Across a paved patio you'll find a huge bessar brick studio with split-system AC, multiple adjoining lean-to's giving you a glimpse of the endless outdoor fun and festivities you can host, as well as a rear shed/garage for all-important storage options.
Peel back the paint, lift the carpets and drop in a new kitchen and 14A Ballara Street becomes an instant character charmer or even a high yield rental breathtakingly close to the city for those thinking to start or expand their property portfolio.
Walking distance to leafy local parks and cafés as well as the CBD itself, 5-minutes to the vibrant shopping strip along Henley Beach Road or just 7-minutes to the Brickworks Markets for all your daily essentials. Superbly located a short distance to Adelaide Airport but away from the flight paths. Not to mention under 15-minutes to the soft sands of West and Henley Beaches for the best of summer – there's lots more than meets the eye here!
