Overview

The Allure of Yesteryear, the Promise of Tomorrow

They say location is everything…and here, you can practically smell the espresso drifting from Storehouse Roastery and see the parmas hitting the pass at Kelly’s, just across the road. Welcome to “Meridan” - an old soul with stories in her walls, ready for someone with vision (and maybe a trusty toolkit) to write her next chapter. Set behind traditional iron gates on a “hills flat” quarter-acre (approx. 1128m²), the home whispers of a circa 1930 art deco era, with utterly gorgeous ceiling roses and cornices that could tell tales if only they spoke. Sure, she needs a bit of love. You might strip her right back and start anew - or maybe you’ll see the potential in what’s already here: lofty ceilings, picture windows, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dine-in kitchen, and a central living room with an original brick fireplace begging to be brought back to life. A former garage has been reimagined as a series of multi-purpose rooms - once used as offices, now ripe for transformation into extra bedrooms, a creative studio, guest space or even a garage once more. At the rear, a relatively new deck opens to a generous backyard with a lemon tree, sunshine, and all the makings of a classic Hills lifestyle: chooks, a veggie patch, a few fruit trees, and barefoot adventures. There’s ample off-street parking (room for the van or boat), a rear workshop shed with concrete floor, ducted heating, and all the village life you love within walking distance - Olinda, Mount Dandenong, cafés, gardens, and the #668 bus just steps away. “Meridan” may be a mystery - but her potential is crystal clear. At a Glance: - Classic 1930s/40s weatherboard on approx. 1128m² of “hills flat” land - Original ceiling roses, cornices, and brick fireplace with restoration potential - 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, central kitchen, and generous living room - Converted garage with flexible multi-room layout - Spacious backyard with lemon tree, new deck, and workshop shed - Ducted heating - Walking distance to Olinda and Mt Dandenong villages, bus stop at your door - Loads of off-street parking with space for caravan or boat - A renovation or rebuild opportunity in a prime lifestyle location Disclaimer: All information provided has been obtained from sources we believe to be accurate, however, we cannot guarantee the information is accurate and we accept no liability for any errors or omissions (including but not limited to a property's land size, floor plans and size, building age and condition) Interested parties should make their own enquiries and obtain their own legal advice.
