Sitting just steps away from Lygon Street, Barkly Cottage is a classic Carlton terrace offering a sense of history and the promise of a glittering future. Ready for you to move in yet boasting plentiful untapped potential, it presents a prime opportunity for those looking to make their mark in this much-adored Inner Melbourne neighbourhood.

With the façade’s grand parapet and decorative wrought-iron frieze showcasing the home’s Victorian heritage, step inside and see high ceilings and period flourishes including moulded archway and ceiling rose. Two bedrooms host built-in robes, with the front room featuring an eye-catching decorative fireplace with regal mirrored mantel.

The central living space flows through to a rear kitchen, bathroom and laundry that offer great scope for enhancement, and the North-facing courtyard offers rear laneway access and the space for possible extension or upgrade (STCA).
