Overview

This charming circa 1940 concrete brick and fibro cottage combines character and modern comfort on a spacious 1168 square metre block in a peaceful street of York. The home has been sympathetically renovated, highlighted by a recently replaced new roof with added insulation for year-round temperature control.

The kitchen centers the home’s functionality, designed with abundant cupboard and pantry storage, pot drawers, marble-effect bench tops, and equipped with a generously sized 900mm wide oven — ideal for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen, a versatile sunroom serves as a study, creatively utilised with multiple desks and storage, perfect for home offices, hobbies, or crafts.

The open lounge and dining area is a warm and inviting space featuring a slow combustion fireplace and split system air conditioning, enhancing comfort throughout the seasons. Split systems have also been installed in both bedrooms and the study, ensuring the entire home is climate-controlled.

Utility areas have been thoughtfully updated, with a modern laundry space including overhead cupboards, while the bathroom retains a neat and functional aesthetic with some contemporary upgrades. Outdoor amenities include a convenient second toilet located under the back pergola, supporting practicality for family gatherings or garden activities.

The property retains a touch of local history with a quaint easement dating back to the 1800s, originally allowing travellers with horses to access a nearby town well—an intriguing feature adding character to the grounds. The old shed offers a lockup garage and workshop space rich in natural timber character, though requiring some renovation; it also includes a large jarrah workbench, likely original to the property.

With two bedrooms, a study, and double parking, this home is well-suited to small families, professionals seeking a peaceful location with room for hobbies, or downsizers desiring a manageable yet roomy property. Its quiet street location and proximity—around 1.2 kilometres—to local amenities like the York IGA add to its appeal.
