Take a leisurely stroll around one of Surrey Hills’ prettiest locales, along peaceful tree-lined streets, past beautifully restored and renovated homes, but don’t blink or you could easily miss the secluded character-filled pocket of Surrey Avenue and the premier opportunity presented by this charming period home.
The inviting facade is a Victorian era delight. Envisage pulling up a wicker chair to enjoy a quiet summer evening on the return verandah. Original features gracing the front rooms include high ornate ceilings and cornices, traditional joinery and stained-glass detailing.
With changes made over time to the original floorplan, the home is geared to versatile living with the surprisingly spacious formal living room supplemented by a further family space, huge country-size kitchen with quality timber cabinetry and generous meals area. The real surprise is a vast, north facing alfresco room at the rear inviting all-weather entertaining on a grand scale.
This delightful home awaits a visionary new family to further its journey. Discover exciting potential for modernisation, restoration or extension and the scope to establish a substantial prestige residence in a premier location catering to the needs of a contemporary family lifestyle (STCA).
Walk to Surrey Hills Village, Coles Local and Chatham Station or the new Union Station. Zoned for Chatham Primary School with Holy Redeemer Catholic Primary also nearby.
