9 Buckingham Street

Comfortable, warm and simple, this refurbished two-bedroom cottage or light and lively city-fringe investment is an incredible find, and one rarely relinquished in historic Gilberton. Tucked away in a quiet street, it's ideal for the busy professional, medico, or couple seeking a sweet home base with an unmatched lifestyle radius - where coffee dates, dinner plans, private colleges and weekend brunches all edge this prestigious territory. The hedged, high-walled arrival is key to keeping this c.1900 stone-fronted haven so private and yet it's bound by Walkerville and Northcote Terraces mere strides from home. Past the cottage gardens, the central hallway greets two carpeted bedrooms upon entry, each dressed in warm whites, accentuated by ceiling fans, decorative fireplaces, and ducted air conditioning. Minimalist style throughout honours the home's innate charm. Polished timber floors give way to neutral carpets in the central living room a social connection point, anchored by a third open fireplace. And as the glazed, north-facing finish brings a sense of space and flow to the casual meals and compact kitchen, the tiled zone adds practical tall storage and an efficient all-in-one bathroom (with laundry provisions) into the equation. The kitchen's highlights are its vine-clad views, updated stainless appliances, and its influential position where 'stage two' could potentially play out or up - for those with bigger plans, subject to planning consent. Pet and child-friendly, those ideas can lean into the deep, established backyard - or enjoy the all-weather patio as is for intimate undercover dining, with the valuable advantage of double gate rear vehicle access. Gilberton prestige is one thing character and cosmopolitan convenience is another. And this historic character suburb delivers it all. All roads lead to the city: via the city ring route, the Linear Park trail, or via Melbourne Street and its boutique pantry of delights.
