Right on the edge of Gross Street Reserve Playground, this weatherboard gem offers something that’s rare, genuine serenity in the heart of the inner-city. With leafy reserve views out back and no neighbours on the northern side, there’s a deep sense of privacy that’s hard to find in Tighes Hill.
Loved and lived in for over two decades, this home has been a sanctuary. Its long-time owner helped create the Tighes Hill Community Garden just around the corner, a thriving space that still brings locals together today. Inside, you’ll find the warmth of timber floors, twin fireplaces, and the soul of a home that’s been truly cherished. Yes, it’s showing its age, but that’s part of the magic. The bones are solid, the charm is intact, and the scope to revive and reimagine is enormous. Whether you restore its vintage character or give it a bold modern twist, the reserve backdrop and community spirit make it a renovation or rebuild (STCA) worth the effort.
Nearby, grab your morning coffee from Praise Joe or linger over breakfast at Equium Social, both a short stroll away. Tighes Hill Public School sits just 450m down the street, and on weekends, you’ll be spoilt for choice. Head to Beaumont Street, hit the Throsby path for a scenic ride to Honeysuckle, or simply sit in the garden and listen to the laughter from the playground out back.
