Secluded Urban Oasis at the Heart of the Action

This beautifully renovated Victorian full brick workers terrace has been designed to maximize space, comfort, and liveability, offering a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living in a peaceful yet highly convenient setting. Nestled in a quiet, tree-lined no-through road, the property is ideally located just around the corner from the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and the medical services precinct, providing easy access to essential amenities.

The property is welcoming and comfortable, suitable for both home living and rental investment. The generous 126 square meter block includes a lined attic with a dormer window, offering potential for an upper-level extension subject to council approval, in keeping with neighboring properties.
