Holding a generous 948.4 sqm parcel of land in a highly convenient East Maitland setting, this classic brick and tiled roof residence presents an exciting opportunity for renovators, investors and developers alike.
Offered in largely original condition, this home invites a fresh vision while already providing comfortable living spaces and a layout that reflects the charm of its era. Beyond the home itself, the site opens the door to future possibilities, with potential to remove the existing garage and introduce a battleaxe driveway to unlock the rear portion of the block for further development, such as a duplex or additional dwellings (subject to Council approval). Rear lane access only adds to the appeal.
Every day living here is exceptionally convenient. Victoria Street and East Maitland Train Stations, plus the Lawes Street shopping precinct, are just moments away, placing commuting, cafés and daily essentials within easy reach. Maitland's CBD and Green Hills Shopping Centre expand your retail and dining options nearby, while weekends invite exploration of the Hunter Valley's renowned wineries or a relaxed drive to Newcastle's beaches and coastline.
Arriving at the property, a classic picket fence frames the front yard, setting a welcoming tone that reflects the home's traditional character. Side access beneath a charming vine covered entry leads to the attached single garage, which also provides internal access to the home.
Stepping inside, the home reveals its original character, highlighted by high ceilings and ornate cornices throughout. At the point of entry, a sunroom with exposed brick walls provides a warm and character filled welcome, offering a flexible space that could easily serve as a sitting area, a reading nook or a home office. The main living room is close by, creating a comfortable space to relax while capturing natural light through the front windows.
Moving further through, the original kitchen comes with a freestanding Westinghouse oven and cooktop, a Robinhood rangehood and a rounded breakfast bar that provides a lovely spot for casual mealtimes.
Toward the rear, a second living and dining zone provides additional everyday living space and opens to a spacious sunroom overlooking the backyard, complete with two ceiling fans for additional comfort.
Two bedrooms fitted with built-in robes sit close to the two bathrooms, one appointed with a shower, a vanity and a WC, while the second includes a built-in corner bath, a separate shower and a vanity.
Outside, a generously sized grassed yard unfolds with established gardens and ample room for your own landscaping vision or future development projects, all enhanced by the convenience of rear lane access.
