Property details

Alma Cottage - Cherished, Character-Rich, Completely Captivating

Its character is immediate and its authenticity is total - this Victorian cottage, known affectionately as Alma Cottage, delivers a depth of period detail that simply cannot be manufactured, in one of West Footscray's most coveted streets.

A lacework verandah and brick-paved garden path precede interiors of real distinction - soaring ceilings with original cornices, Baltic pine floors, an open fireplace with period surround and stained glass windows throughout establish a personality that carries from room to room with complete consistency. The formal living room, anchored by an ornate fireplace and framed by a striking stained glass window, flows to a separate dining room with direct garden access before connecting to a functional kitchen and meals area - white cabinetry, timber benchtops, island seating - that opens to the home's most compelling space.

The open rear verandah is a genuine entertainer's asset, connecting seamlessly to the private backyard with established trees and timber deck. A separate family room extends the flexibility further, while three generous bedrooms - each with high ceilings and period detailing - are supported by a bathroom with clawfoot bath, subway tiles and glass shower, plus separate laundry and WC. For those seeking four bedrooms, the separate dining room presents a natural and straightforward conversion opportunity without compromising the home's essential character or flow.

Zoned for West Footscray Primary School and just a short walk to Barkly Street village's celebrated cafes and restaurants, West Footscray and Tottenham stations are both within easy reach. Johnson Reserve and Martin Reserve dog park are close at hand, while Shorten Reserve and the brand new Rec West facility are currently undergoing a major redevelopment that will further elevate an already outstanding neighbourhood.

Alma Cottage is a home that rewards at every turn, and opportunities of this character and authenticity - in a street this good - don't come around often.
