Positioned in quiet Sparke Street, just a few minutes stroll from the local neighbourhood shops and George Café, this beautifully restored weatherboard home pairs the soul of its era with the feel of something brand new. Everything's been done with care, from the new piers and plumbing to the rich Federation colour scheme, coloured glass windows, and classic period lines. The front verandah catches gentle morning sun, lining up a peaceful spot to ease into the day.
Inside, a central hallway sets the tone with timber floors and dado boards, leading to two bedrooms where VJ-panelled walls shine with fresh life. The lounge feels warm and welcoming with air-con, an ornamental fireplace, and more coloured glass scattering light across the boards. Opposite, the main bedroom adds walk-in robe and ensuite convenience, while the open plan dining and a stunning kitchen sit at the rear, soaking up afternoon rays. The main bathroom keeps the heritage love going with a restored clawfoot tub and shower.
Out back, there's a great spread of yard for kids, pets and weekend downtime, plus a new concrete driveway and freestanding double garage. It's all set up for easy modern living with every period detail carefully preserved making it perfect for anyone who loves the character of period homes but wants the comfort of new.
Buses, Waratah Station, schools, Waratah Village, and the Sunday Farmers' Markets are all close by, with Beaumont Street five minutes away and the city just ten. Quality craftsmanship, timeless charm, and everyday convenience come together effortlessly here.
