Overview

Rare East Geelong Opportunity

Rarely does such an opportunity arise in one of East Geelong's most tightly held tree-lined pockets. Set on 357m2 and boasting dual street frontages, this double-storey character home offers buyers exciting scope to renovate or extend and put their own personal touch on the property, creating the home of their dreams. A charming period facade features a large north-facing porch adorned with lovely ironwork and colourful lead-light windows. The interiors unveil soaring ceilings and curved archways that add drama and a sense of space to the ground floor. It comprises a cosy living area that flows into the formal dining room, with the adjoining kitchen/dining zone showcasing rich timber cabinetry, quality appliances (Westinghouse oven & Technika gas cooktop) and a built-in pantry. Two great-sized bedrooms (with BIRs) share access to the main bathroom, which includes a shower over the bath. A home office (or versatile 4th bedroom) and laundry complete the lower level. Upstairs reveals a light-filled parent's retreat or second living space and a generous-sized Master bedroom. It contains a modern ensuite with ample storage and a walk-in robe. Ducted heating and two split-system air conditioners provide comfort throughout the seasons. Eight solar panels help to reduce energy bills. Currently, the rear yard incorporates paved alfresco entertaining with a large grassy area and a garden shed, but there is a wealth of potential to extend the home's footprint and build a new garage off Winter Street (STCA). This exceptional location is close to all that this great city has to offer. Easy walking distance to the Geelong Botanic Gardens and Garden Street shopping precinct, while the iconic Eastern Beach, CBD and nearby hospitals are only a short stroll from your front door. Zoned to Tate Street Primary School and Geelong High School, you are just a 10-minute drive from some of Geelong's finest private secondary schools. Excellent access to public transport, while close proximity to the Bellarine Highway, connects you to the delights of the Bellarine Peninsula. Potential rent return at $570 - $595 per week.
