Overview

The ultimate canvas for a Mar Lodge masterpiece

Four doors from the c.1865 homestead that gave the Mar Lodge Estate its name, this 891sqm* marquee holding sits on Forrester Street where Essendon's most prestigious enclave began. It is one of the few blank canvases left on the estate; a chance to build a family home entirely to your own design. There is no heritage overlay, and the 18.3m* frontage gives an architect plenty to work with. Behind the Californian façade sit four bedrooms, a bathroom and multiple living areas, plus a multi-room bungalow at the rear. The deep backyard faces north and is framed by established trees room for a pool, a proper lawn and a vegetable patch. The streets here are lined with old trees, and the single-dwelling covenant set when the grounds were subdivided in 1921keeps the enclave as it is. The postcode recently recorded an eight-figure sale, and homes nearby have sold for more than $5 million. PEGS, Lowther Hall, St Bernard's, Ave Maria and St Columba's are all minutes away. Walk to Buckley and Fawkner Streets for coffee, fresh bread, after-hours drinks and the IGA, with the river, parks, sporting clubs, lifestyle villages, city trains and freeways close by. Land size: 891sqm* *Approximately. All potential uses of the property are subject to council approval.
