Overview

Exciting potential to update, personalise or completely reimagine

A wonderfully original, tightly held 1950s solid-brick classic, this much-loved home on a generous allotment within one of Thornbury's more sought-after streets provides the proportions, position and potential to create something truly your own. Enhanced by retained period details, which include picture rails, an open fireplace and decorative cornice, the currently comfortable spaces comprise three bedrooms sharing a retro bathroom finished with a pedestal vanity and terrazzo flooring, a spacious lounge, and a warm, welcoming eat-in kitchen that offers an exciting and enticing opportunity for renovators and visionaries alike. The north-facing rear yard, gated for peace of mind with kids and pets, provides plenty of space for an alfresco sanctuary, a contemporary extension or both (STCA). Enviably positioned just footsteps from Clyde Jones Reserve and zoned for Thornbury High and Wales Street Primary Schools, High Street's eclectic mix of boutiques, cafes, eateries, entertainment options and trams are within a short walk. Your choice of Thornbury or Croxton stations is almost as close, while Northcote Plaza and All Nations Park are within easy reach. Whether your vision is to restore, reinvent, rebuild or redevelop (all STCA), this is your chance to create something that reflects the way you want to live, in the space you want to live in.
