51 Iffla Street

Set on a deep 160sqm (approx) allotment and shaped by the generous proportions of its Victorian origins, this freestanding solid-brick cottage holds a tightly held position on the edge of the St Vincent Gardens precinct, offering a compelling platform for what comes next. The light-filled interiors retain all the charm of yesteryear, with Baltic pine floors, 3.5m ceilings and an arched hallway introducing two large bedrooms boasting built-in robes. A bright bathroom sits to the rear, linking to the central living room, which flows effortlessly into the charming vintage kitchen, then extends through the dining area into the paved rear courtyard. Entirely private and generously sized, there is enormous scope here for an extension (STCA), with an external laundry and storeroom plus plenty of space to sit back and relax. Capitalising on the unbeatable lifestyle position, this easy-to-love home places Albert Park Village, the city-bound light rail, trams, the beach and excellent schools all within easy walking distance, with the appeal of Bay Street and South Melbourne Market within moments of the front door. Complete with split system heating and cooling, it offers enormous potential for now and the future, whether seeking a renovation project, a carefree first home, or a new chapter in your housing game with scope to extend up and out (STCA).
