$1,300,000 - $1,400,000
A wonderful surprise awaits behind the door of this classic weatherboard cottage. From the street, its charming façade gives little away about the extent of the architect-designed renovation and extension within, which has transformed what was originally a two-bedroom cottage into a beautifully resolved three-bedroom home. Original period character sits comfortably alongside contemporary architecture, custom joinery and a carefully curated colour palette, with every element considered as part of the redesign. With dual access from Howden Street, Jubilee Park just footsteps away and Carrington's neighbourhood shops, cafés and popular corner pubs around the corner, there's plenty to love here.
The layout is beautifully zoned, with all three bedrooms positioned at the front of the home. Tall ceilings, timber-panelled walls and honey-toned six-inch timber floors retain the cottage's warmth and character, while architect-designed built-in wardrobes, a linen cupboard and bookshelves add smart storage throughout. The central lounge has also been extensively reworked, with a new bay window incorporating a built-in seat and integrated drawers creating an inviting spot to relax while drawing in abundant natural light. A new full-size bathroom with underfloor heating, European laundry and guest powder room lead into the showpiece open plan living, dining and kitchen area. A soaring 4.6m cathedral ceiling and floor-to-ceiling glass create an impressive sense of space, while beautiful natural light and winter sunshine pour in. Two sets of bi-fold doors peel back to connect the interiors with a tranquil north-facing garden framed by travertine paving and a water feature, creating a private outdoor setting for long lunches, drinks with friends or simply relaxing in the sunshine.
Carrington's growing collection of cafés, neighbourhood shops and local favourites including Young Street Hotel, Seven Seas and Earp Distilling Co. are all just moments away, adding to the strong community feel that makes this harbourside suburb so popular. When you feel like getting outdoors, launch a kayak or paddleboard, take the dog to the off-leash park, join the weekly Parkrun, or follow the harbourside path on foot or by bike all the way to Honeysuckle and Nobbys Beach.
