Take your Pimms and Dry or pot of tea on the porch at 9 Moran Street. The wide and shady return veranda would entice anyone to stay-awhile, or even make the move to this terrific location on the city’s fringe. This character cottage has been updated in all the right areas, while retaining its proud period heart. It also boasts a big block with clear side access, opening up the possibility of subdivision in a sought-after area – subject to council approval. The home has loads of personality, and more space than you might think! There are three bedrooms here, all off the wide and welcoming entrance hall. A vinyl plank floor is a practical addition in sympathy with the home. Original features include high ceilings, picture rails and a beautiful ceiling rose in the living room. A modern kitchen has an island bench, stainless steel under-bench oven, gas cook top and dishwasher, and is open to the dining room. The separate lounge boasts that wonderful ceiling, as well as an exposed brick fireplace and frosted glass French doors. A split system takes care of the heating and cooling. The modernised bathroom is a bespoke space featuring a slate floor and dado boards, plus a bath, separate shower and vanity with stone bench. There is an undercover entertainment space running the width of the home, plus some rear shedding/bungalow for extra storage. Moran Street is at the gateway to View Street, and the city’s arts precinct. Enjoy living in the company of fellow goldfields cottages and grand heritage homes.
