There's so much to love about this renovated cottage but it's the lush tropical garden that's like a private rainforest oasis that will really capture your imagination. Sitting pretty in a tightly held pocket of Tempe, the single-storey home is set on an unexpectedly deep and incredibly private 506sqm approx block with a family friendly layout featuring four bedrooms and a versatile garden studio ideal as a teen retreat and chillout lounge or guest cottage. Built c1915, the original character shines through with soaring ceilings and loads of light while the contemporary open plan rear serves as the social heart of the home with the landscaped gardens as a natural extension of the living space. Right next to Tempe High School and Coles Jones Pool, this tucked-away street is 650m to Tempe station and the waterfront at Mackey Park.
