15 Charles Street Erskineville, NSW 2043

An authentic Erskineville gem, this 6m-fronted weatherboard and brick cottage radiates warmth and timeless character in one of the best spots in the village. Offered for the first time in 30 years, the impeccably maintained classic is tucked away on a wide tree-lined street just footsteps to the buzzing village heart, cafes and wine bars in a leafy pocket that feels worlds away yet just 300m to the station. With a welcoming, homely feel and unexpectedly spacious layout, the substantial two-storey home is full of soul with three bedrooms including a top-floor main with adjoining study, perfect as a parents' retreat.
