Beautiful Stanford cottages like this are not presented often to the market and we invite the visionary renovator to take advantage of this rare opportunity. This is a renovator's delight and can be transformed into a masterpiece of note. Located within the Heritage precinct and a great specimen of Stanford's unique architectural style, this property ticks all the boxes, offers many possibilities, and is priced to sell.

This cottage has 2 Bedrooms and a storage room that was previously a Bedroom and could easily be converted back into a Bedroom or study or extension of the enclosed stoep. A lounge, Kitchen, separate toilet, and Bathroom complete the main dwelling. The main house is in a beautiful local vernacular, featuring a Cape Dutch heritage gable wall to the northeast and stylistically leaning towards an adapted Victorian barn-style Stanford house. The bedrooms, hallway, and lounge have original wooden flooring, and you step into a well-preserved era in this house. There are gorgeous wooden beams in the lounge, wooden ceilings in the bedrooms, and picture rails in the hallway and bedrooms. The enclosed stoep at the entrance gets lovely morning sun and creates a great sun lounge. The enclosed stoep also has a fireplace for cold weather.

Separate from the house is a Bachelors Garden flat with a shower and toilet Bathroom, and it features exposed trusses, finished in white. The house position on the plot allows for a big yard towards the North, and with a coverage of 50% permitted of the Erf size, there is potential to expand on the existing structures.

The garden could be pruned away substantially to feature the house more prominently on the streetscape. The garden is filled with birds and the house has a lovely scarce old-world charm.
