Character cottage | dual-living potential | flood overlay present | walkable to West End This property offers a rare configuration for the inner-south market. The 1910 cottage retains its period detailing,high ceilings, VJ panelling, stained glass,while the lower level functions as a self-contained space with kitchenette and separate entry. For a buyer seeking multigenerational accommodation, a home office, or a separate rental income stream, this layout provides genuine flexibility that most comparable houses lack. The 405m² block with 36% building coverage leaves meaningful scope for future extension or garden reworking, and the location near Boggo Road’s pending train station and existing bus routes strengthens long-term connectivity. The property best suits a buyer who values character, walkability to West End and South Bank, and a configurable floorplan over a pristine turnkey finish. The flood overlay is the primary consideration and will affect insurance premiums and may limit certain renovations without council assessment. This is not a dealbreaker for a well-informed buyer, but it must be factored into holding costs and any extension plans. The dual-living arrangement, however, offers immediate commercial logic: the lower level could generate rental income that offsets mortgage or insurance expenses, or serve as a dedicated workspace in a post-pandemic market. The rear garden is well-landscaped but underutilised,there is clear potential to add value through a deck extension or studio addition if flood constraints allow. Hold this property as a medium-term residence with income support, and monitor the Boggo Road infrastructure timeline as a value catalyst.
