It is a standalone house offering three bedrooms and one bathroom.
Leichhardt sits about 5 kilometres west of the Sydney CBD, so the house is roughly that distance from the city centre.
Pioneers Memorial Park is approximately 0.2 km away, War Memorial Park about 0.4 km, and 36th Battalion Park around 0.9 km, providing easy access to green space.
The Leichhardt North tram stop is about 0.7 km away, and the Leichhardt Bus Depot is roughly 0.3 km from the house, offering numerous bus routes across the inner west.
Norton Street, a short walk away, hosts a variety of cafés, restaurants (including many Italian venues), boutique shops, the Palace Cinema, and two shopping centres – MarketPlace Leichhardt and Norton Plaza.
Leichhardt Town Hall (c. 1888) is around 0.6 km away, as is the historic Leichhardt Fire Station, and the former Leichhardt Hotel lies nearby on Balmain Road.
Leichhardt was named after explorer Ludwig Leichhardt and became a municipality in 1871; it was later merged with Annandale and Balmain in 1949 and has a rich mix of Victorian homes and modern architecture.
