Turning into Burn Street, the leafy canopy creates a welcoming first impression of this attractive and peaceful street. Set well back from the road on a generous, level block of 780 m2 with a northerly aspect, this two bedroom cottage surely has the "cute" factor! A wide verandah and large front window contribute to the street appeal. Surrounding properties and many others in the street have undergone a stylish upgrade.
The home is presented in neat, original condition. In the centre of the lounge, the fireplace brickwork which is presently covered, suggests the possibility of restoration to create cosy winter ambience. The Brivis ducted gas heating ensures comfort and convenience. The timber floors, currently covered by carpet and lino could be sanded and polished. The bright meals and kitchen area has a north east aspect. Sash windows are in excellent condition and let in plenty of light.
The master bedroom has generous built-in robe space and the second bedroom has two smaller built-in robes. The bathroom includes a shower over the bath, basin and w/c. There is a Rinnai instantaneous hot water system. The laundry leads onto a small covered timber porch.
The private rear garden is enclosed and shaded by a Chinese pistachio tree. Against the back wall of the home, a covered, paved entertaining area is partially enclosed and sheltered by a large camellia, providing an inviting place to relax. A double carport has lock up storage at the rear.
This very appealing street offers a fantastic inner north location and is just a short walk to Dickson College, Rosary Primary, the Catholic University and Dickson playing fields. The swimming pool and all the restaurants and buzz of the Dickson centre are only a short distance. Bushwalking on Mt. Majura and Mt. Ainslie is another of the great pleasures of living in the area. So whether your desire is to renovate, extend or build your dream design, this charming cottage on a 780 m2 block is the perfect blank canvas!
