56 Palmer Street, Balmain NSW 2041

Warmth and whimsy bring a welcoming feel to this double-fronted weatherboards cottage on an idyllic private dual access block. Steeped in history and set behind an enchanting sandstone-walled garden, the two-storey home was built in the 1870s as one of Balmain's earliest homes and has been lovingly held and maintained for almost half a century. Capturing sweeping district views and magical sunsets from the upper level, the three-bedroom home's eclectic charm, 240sqm approx block and rear lane access present the ideal foundations for a new style chapter. In a prized peninsula setting with Gladstone Park around the corner, this character-filled home offers an uplifting sense of tranquility while being reassuringly close to the action just 300m to Woolworths and Balmain village.
