An 1880s classic with city views and a bright future

Built in the 1880s and forming part of Gipps Street's elegant Victorian streetscape, this wide-fronted terrace captures views to the city and tip of the Harbour Bridge from its commanding vantage point on the peninsula. Lovingly held and maintained for 40 years, the two-storey classic is offered in excellent condition and features right-of-way-access to a sunny NW facing courtyard. With its filigree facade and shuttered French doors making a welcoming first impression, the three-bedroom home is perfectly comfortable as is but it's the potential here that makes it such a great opportunity. There's plenty of room to extend to the boundary at the rear as well as scope to maximise the vista from a potential attic conversion in line with neighbouring homes (STCA). Just 250m to the locals favourite Charlotte Cafe, this peninsula classic is ideal to live in while exploring the potential and is just 400m to Balmain Sailing Club and 500m to Mort Bay Park.
