Overview

From Jailhouse to Dream House-Your Move

Set on a substantial 724sqm (approx.) allotment (RGZ3), this former police station presents a rare and unique opportunity in the heart of Highett for renovators, investors, or developers seeking a property with exceptional potential. Decommissioned in the 1990s, the double-storey brick building still features an original jail cell in the backyard-an intriguing remnant of its historical past that adds character and conversation to the site. Offering a spacious and highly flexible layout, the home is designed to accommodate a wide range of living arrangements across two levels. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms are serviced by a central bathroom, forming a comfortable family zone. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms extend the accommodation capacity, including a master bedroom featuring a walk-in robe, and additional space for a study and a sitting area-ideal for multi-generational living or work-from-home setups. The living zone is expansive, complete with an electric heater and an air conditioning unit for year-round comfort. The open-plan kitchen, meals, and dining area provide a large communal space, with a gas cooktop and oven and durable tiled benchtops ready for use or refurbishment. The lower level also includes a separate WC, a practical laundry, and valuable under-stair storage. Outside, the property features two separate storage rooms and a large, detached studio, perfect for use as a workshop, artist's retreat, or flexible utility space. A powder room is conveniently located outside. Ample off-street parking adds further appeal, while the solid brick construction and large landholding elevate the property's value as a renovation or redevelopment site (STCA). Importantly, the property is located in the Residential Growth Zone - Schedule 3 (RGZ3), offering significant potential for higher-density development. With no heritage overlay in place, the site provides maximum flexibility for those looking to transform or reimagine the space. Superbly positioned within walking distance to Highett Station, Highett Road Village, and Highett Shopping Centre, the property also enjoys close proximity to Highett Reserve, Waves Leisure Centre, Southland Shopping Centre, and Sir William Fry Reserve. Educational and recreational amenities nearby include Holmesglen Institute, Moorabbin Primary School, Moorabbin Reserve, Moorabbin Village, Basterfield Park, Bluff Road Village, and Peterson Street Reserve. Offering an abundance of space, structural integrity, and untapped potential in a thriving Bayside suburb, this is a rare chance to make your mark on one of Highett's most distinctive and versatile properties. *Please Note: Ray White Bentleigh/Carnegie kindly requests attendees to present Photo ID prior to property entry and inspection
