Description: 19th Century flood free Railway Workers Cottage on 396m2. 1 bedroom to the front and 2 additional rooms to the back with 1 bathroom, ready to be renovated. Now and again a cute little piece of Ipswich history comes on the market. Built in 1880, this little cottage just needs the right person with the talent and vision to bring it back to life. This is one of the oldest railway houses in Ipswich. Apparently these early examples were de-mountable but this one has been settled in its little corner for a long time. The wide pine floor boards are indicative of these early cottages as is its shady north facing verandah. Inside the bathroom is well on the way to being completed and a positive is that unlike many bathrooms in old cottages this one is well situated, light and airy and is large enough to easily fit its large claw-foot bath. To the front of the house there is a parlor or study. The living room and kitchen are centrally located spanning the full length of the cottage. They could be relined with VJ's for that original timber finish. Fabulous lockup shed suitable for one car and workshop.
So there it is!! Come, see it for yourself and get ready to work your magic. This home has a presence that newer homes don't have. If you are looking for a special project, your face will light up when you see this delightful little renovator.
