Overview

Gorgeous Character Home with DA Approved Plans for Tennis Court Estate

Occupying an extraordinary 1513m2 landholding across three lots in a premium Bardon location, this property presents a truly rare opportunity. With an expansive frontage and DA approved architectural plans by Minnow Studio to transform the existing residence into a spectacular family estate, the possibilities here are exceptional. The existing 1930’s era Queenslander is rich in character and charm. It has been beautifully maintained and showcases timeless features including soaring ceilings, a large combined lounge and dining room with stunning timber detailing and a lovely bay window. A semi-enclosed L-shaped verandah is a wonderful spot to relax and a sunroom at the rear of the property captures a picturesque, elevated outlook. There are three bedrooms, two with French doors opening onto the verandah, a separate study and a neat and tidy bathroom, complete with clawfoot bath. The home offers very comfortable living as it is, but it’s the exciting potential that really sets this property apart. The expansive grounds offer an increasingly rare, inner city luxury. There are DA approved plans in place to create a spectacular estate, with room for a full-sized tennis court, swimming pool and beautifully landscaped grounds where children can play, friends can gather and resort style living can be enjoyed, all within minutes of the city. The location is highly desirable, just a short stroll to Bowman Park and conveniently close to excellent schools including St Joseph’s, Stuartholme and in the catchment for Rainworth State School. The café and shopping precincts of Paddington and Rosalie are close and it’s just a short commute to the CBD. Landholdings in prestigious and established locations such as this are exceptionally rare. This is a generational opportunity to create a landmark family estate in the heart of beautiful Bardon. Do not delay an inspection.
