52 Palmer Street, Balmain NSW 2041

One of the area's oldest homes, this historic home c.1860's built of locally quarried Sydney sandstone, was once an iconic local corner store and is now somewhat of a window into Balmain's eclectic past. Semidetached and enjoying an elevated position on the corner of Palmer and Little Stephen Streets, the home's deceptively spacious interior has a current floorplan with potential to reconfigure (STCA) to create additional rooms and even develop the huge attic space. In a highly desirable enclave minutes' walk to the heart of Darling Street retail strip and city bus, it backs onto the lush grounds of Balmain Hospital, creating a serene paved and terraced rear garden with off street parking for a small vehicle. - Warm and richly decorated interior featuring sandstone, slate and timber - Huge open plan double loungeroom with Regency built-in gas fireplace - Separate dining room leading to gas timber kitchen with black granite bench tops - Oversized master bedroom, period style bathroom with tessellated tiled floor and second bedroom to the rear with own stairs to the garden.
