Overview

This character-rich freestanding period home sits on an approximately 430sqm parcel of level land in the sought-after suburb of Canterbury, offering a rare blend of timeless charm and considerable potential. Its beautifully maintained interior features original ornate ceilings, polished timber floors, decorative fireplaces, and picture rails, which create an atmosphere of enduring elegance that welcomes both family living and future renovation.

The home currently includes two generous bedrooms with large built-in wardrobes, supplemented by a separate study or possible third bedroom, offering flexibility for a growing family or those working from home. The spacious family living area is enhanced by a bay window adorned with stained-glass details and a built-in window bench, complemented by a separate dining room that encourages relaxed entertaining.

The kitchen, equipped with gas cooking, has been updated but provides an opportunity to personalise to your own culinary style. The renovated bathroom combines a bath and shower, catering to both convenience and comfort. A rear sunroom overlooks the expansive backyard, serving as a tranquil spot for morning coffee or supervising children at play.

  • Expansive, level backyard framed by established gardens including mature olive and lemon trees, plus a large garden shed
  • Paved alfresco entertaining area ideal for gatherings and weekend barbecues
  • Carspace with gated side access offering additional parking or side yard use
  • Outstanding scope to renovate, extend, or enhance, including potential for a pool and cabana subject to council approval

Strategically positioned for lifestyle convenience, the property is within walking distance of Canterbury and Campsie train stations, local shops, cafés, and recreational facilities such as Cooks River parklands and the new Canterbury Leisure and Aquatic Centre.
