Presenting an exciting opportunity to buy into the coveted Cooks Hill market, where an updated interior has pulled off the delicate balancing act of marrying the old with the new, flaunting wide timber floorboards, a wood-burning fireplace, high ceilings and leadlight features with a modern kitchen and bathroom, separate living and dining zones, and double sized bedrooms. A paved alfresco area and lawned backyard are a rare asset within this suburb, offering a private outdoor haven for weekend entertaining. Dawson Street is one of Cooks Hills most tightly-held streets, where strolling to trendy cafes and boutique shopping, old-school corner pubs, restaurants and wine bars, Harris Farm Market, a comprehensive medical centre, and Genesis gym become a daily reality.
