Set on an allotment of approx. 326sqm is this 2 bedroom circa 1910 cottage. Positioned moments from the ever popular Semaphore and the carnival and shopping precinct of the LeFevre Peninsula.
This sought after area offers a very attractive lifestyle awash with character and affordability that entices ones senses and seldom relinquishes its hold. A strong undertone of community exists and is there for the taking. This home is one for the investors and home owners alike.
A perfect home to renovate and reap the rewards or simply demolish and start again, the choice is yours. A perfect entry level home to a most desirable location.

Upon entry you are greeted by a long hallway that is lavished with 12-13 approx. foot ceilings that adorns the entire front of the home. This is further enhanced with solid timber floors that would respond well to a sand and polish; these also adorn all living quarters of the abode. Bedroom 1 and 2 are finished with ornate period open fireplaces that are enhanced with decorative mantels and ceiling fans.
The kitchen also is timeless in appearance with an art deco influence resounding strongly. From the Metters style sink to the decorative side board cupboard and overhead storage this will take you back to when grandma sat the family down for the ever classic Sunday roast.

An electric oven is nestled in the alcove where a wood oven would have once slept. This area is finished with a lino floor that ties the period kitchen together in all aspects of the word and a ceiling fan to waft the roast smell throughout the entire home. This area combines the kitchen and dine together creating compact living the way it used to be.

Towards the rear of the home is positioned the shower and duel flush toilet with a vanity unit plus having the ability to accommodate a laundry under the main roof.

We also offer the added bonus of a brick external outhouse that compromises a bath tub, vanity, toilet, and laundry facilities. This is further enhanced by an instant gas heater hot water system.

From the front ball nose verandah to the two transportable ATCO huts that besiege the back yard that both have power and at one point were possibly utilized as bedrooms or extra storage, this 1910 cottage has a few modern surprises in stall like solar power and a Dakin inverter reverse cycle ducted air conditioning unit to keep the elements at bay.

A small garden shed and single garage with roller door to house ones 4 wheeled chariot all go to make this one of Birkenhead's little gems.
