29 North St, Balmain NSW 2041, Australia

Evoking the ambiance of a traditional farmhouse along with a wonderful sense of nostalgia, this double-fronted cottage rests amid native gardens on an incredibly rare 448.9sqm in one of the best spots in the village. An 18m approx. frontage and sunny established gardens deliver a sense of arrival while the interiors of the character-filled cottage retain their vintage charm. Available for the first time in half a century, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a significant landholding with scope to renovate the existing freestanding cottage taking full advantage of the level site. Or even explore the potential to subdivide and build two new homes in this premier pocket with Darling Street village at the top of the street.
