Tucked away in quiet Phoebe Street yet just around the corner from all the action on Beaumont Street, and literally a hop, skip and a jump to the Throsby bike path via Islington Park, this renovated miner's cottage is your inner-city lifestyle haven. Extended at the rear to create a spacious open plan living area in addition to the formal lounge or dining room, you can move straight in and immediately enjoy everything that comes from living in such a vibrant location. Behind its classic double fronted façade, 10ft ceilings soar above spotted gum floors, and plush new carpet to the three classically proportioned bedrooms. The main open plan living area is wonderfully spacious at the rear of the home where it can effortlessly open to the deck and private gardens via tall western red cedar sliding glass doors. Here you can relax, dine alfresco or potter in the yard. Back inside, the modern kitchen features gas cooking and a dishwasher. Air-conditioning and a wood combustion heater keeps things cool in summer and toasty in winter, and a study nook is the perfect spot to set up the home office. This is a low maintenance home where each day you get to wake up and choose from which café to buy your morning latte, or whether you are going to ride your bike to work in the city or catch a bus on Maitland Road or a train at Hamilton Station. As night falls wander around the corner to Pinos, the Smokin Hot n Saucy Texan BBQ food truck, or the Wickham Hotel for a feed.
