41 Carlisle Street, Preston VIC 3072

3-bed period cottage on 279sqm | Preston/Thornbury border | no heritage overlay | single-bathroom constraint This is a period cottage on a mid-sized block in a sought-after pocket, with no heritage overlay restricting alterations. Its 279sqm land and two-car parking are competitive for an older house in this part of the inner-north, where many similar blocks are smaller or more constrained. The property suits buyers who value period character, a quiet street, and proximity to trams, shops, and parklands, without the premium of a fully renovated home. It is best matched to families or upgraders seeking a solid foundation they can personalise over time. The single bathroom may limit appeal for some families, and the building area discrepancy between 93sqm and 122sqm suggests careful verification of usable internal space is warranted. The asking range sits below typical expectations for a three-bedroom house in this area, which may reflect the need for renovation or the smaller floorplan. Buyers should weigh the cost and scope of any desired updates against the property’s strong location and land component when forming a view on price.
