HISTORIC COTTAGE

Description

* 80sqm * Parking available * Divided into 5 rooms * Includes attic. Asking rent: $48,000 plus GST per annum gross + GST Parking: $4,200 per annum + GST This is a beautiful and rare historic 2 storey sandstone cottage on Victoria Street. The National Trust has listed its year of construction as "circa 1840". It can be seen in the Holtermann photographs taken in the 1870's. A Historic Report held in the Heritage Section of the Council Library states that these cottages (no's. 45 and 43) together with Don Bank are POSSIBLY THE OLDEST STILL IN EXISTENCE NORTH OF THE HARBOUR. The building is in excellent condition. In the past two years, the owners have spent over $100,000 on refurbishment, bringing the cottage to mint condition, including excavation and ventilation of the subfloor, and new timber flooring and staircase in Australian hardwood. The gutters and downpipes have also been renewed, internal and external painting completed. Because of the unusual Residential F zoning, the property has amazing potential to be used as either commercial offices (current usage), as a stunning residence,or a mix of both. It is in a prime location, in the exclusive McMahons Point enclave, close to North Sydney CBD, train station and buses, and just a stroll to the cafes and shops in Blues Point Road. It is nestled close to the Harbour between Lavender Bay and Berrys Bay.
