Set among one of Mount Victoria's most iconic rows of turn of the century homes, this late-1800s cottage feels perfectly at home in its creative, inner-city surroundings. The freshly painted Midnight Moss green frontage, framed by lush Griselinia, sets the tone before you even step inside. Through the high front window, a flora inspired Forms in Nature light sculpture offers a quiet hint that this is a home with personality.
Key features include:
- Late 1800s two-bedroom character cottage
- Front bedroom with shutters and leafy street privacy
- Second double bedroom upstairs with rooftop outlook and striking green pitched ceiling
- Cosy sitting room with adjoining dining space
- Large built-in shelving for display and storage
- Compact, tidy kitchen and bathroom
- Sheltered courtyard garden with sunny deck
- Established plants in pots creating a private green retreat
- External-access laundry
- Feature Forms in Nature light fitting by Thyra Hilden and Pio Diaz
Inside, the layout is thoughtful, charming and perfectly tailored to cottage life. A cosy sitting room connects to the dining space, complete with built-in shelving for books, ceramics and favourite finds - the kind of space that naturally evolves with its owner.
Also on this level, the kitchen has an outlook to the courtyard and the tidy bathroom completes the ground floor picture. At the rear is a sun filled courtyard garden complete with decked area for long summer al fresco dinners. Lush greenery in planter boxes frames the space creating a green retreat that feels far removed from the city - ideal for slow mornings or a relaxed drink at the end of the week with friends.
The front bedroom feels calm and private in a lush dusty pink, while the upstairs room enjoys a sense of being above it all with views across Mount Victoria's rooftops. It's a home that suits a creative, inner-city lifestyle - walkable, characterful and full of atmosphere.
If you've been searching for a Mount Vic cottage with genuine charm and a strong sense of place, this one is well worth a look.
