Some properties simply have that X-factor - and 3 Langford Avenue, Mitcham is one of them.
The location is A1. Top shelf. As good as it gets. Nestled in one of Mitcham's most tightly held pockets, surrounded by beautiful tree-lined streets and premium homes, this is a location immersed in nature yet incredibly convenient. Rangeview Primary School and Vermont Secondary School are just moments away, while Mitcham Station, local shopping and everyday amenities are all within easy reach.
But the real headline here is the land. Set on an outstanding 1,070m² approximately, the allotment is huge, level, rectangular and boasts premium street frontage - a combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in such a highly regarded location.
The existing home is one of the area's originals, rich in history and character, having been extended and updated progressively over the years. A circular driveway creates an impressive arrival while providing excellent off-street parking, with a second driveway running beyond the home into the rear yard. For families, tradespeople or buyers with caravans, boats, trailers or recreational vehicles, the flexibility here is exceptional.
Step through the covered front porch and double entry doors into the formal foyer, where the home's character immediately begins to shine. The lounge offers a warm and inviting place to retreat, complete with a blazing gas log fire/heater - perfect for quiet evenings or relaxed conversation.
Flowing through is the substantial family dining room, enhanced by a second fireplace and split-system heating and cooling, creating another comfortable and atmospheric living zone.
The adjoining kitchen has been modernised over time and includes Laminex cabinetry, electric hotplates, under-bench oven, rangehood, extensive overhead storage and a double sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the front garden.
Beyond the kitchen is a separate rumpus room, providing a fantastic second living area - ideal for family gatherings, a games room or a private retreat for teenagers.
Three generously proportioned bedrooms are positioned off the main entry foyer alongside the family bathroom and toilet, while a further smaller bedroom or home office sits beyond the rumpus room, together with an additional bathroom for added family convenience.
There is no disguising that the home is now showing its age and will require some work, but the bones, character and period appeal are unmistakable. Restore it and you could create something truly special.
And then there are the alternatives. Renovate and extend.
Retain the beautiful period façade and completely transform the rear into a contemporary family masterpiece. Build your dream home on an extraordinary parcel of land. Or explore the redevelopment potential of the site, including side-by-side townhomes, subject of course to council approval. The possibilities are enormous.
What is certain is that properties of this scale, in locations of this calibre, with this much future potential, are becoming increasingly rare. First time offered in almost half a century, this is the type of real estate that years from now you may well look back on and be thankful you secured when you had the Opportunity.
So don't be shy here. 1,070m² approximately. Premium Mitcham location. Character, land and endless potential. This is a property that demands your attention.
