Set on a substantial allotment of approximately 961sqm with rear access from Salter Street, this freestone fronted return verandah villa presents one of Kensington's most exciting opportunities. Rich in character and history, this is a property that invites vision, imagination and a passion for restoration.
Situated within the Historic Area Overlay of the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters, the home is in poor original condition and requires comprehensive renovation and extension. Perfectly suited to the experienced renovator or builder, it offers the chance to breathe new life into a grand character residence while creating a home of exceptional quality and distinction. There is also potential for subdivision, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The existing accommodation comprises three generous bedrooms, two featuring original fireplaces and one with air conditioning. A formal lounge with fireplace, separate dining room with fireplace and split-system air conditioning, kitchen, bathroom, laundry and a dry cellar.
The location is as impressive as the opportunity. Just a short stroll from the vibrant heart of The Parade, you'll enjoy an enviable lifestyle surrounded by popular cafes, restaurants, boutique shopping and everyday conveniences. Families are exceptionally well catered for, with Pembroke School, St Peter's Girls' School, St Peter's College, Loreto College and Mary MacKillop College all within easy access.
The property is zoned for the highly regarded Marryatville Primary School and Marryatville High School.
Properties of this size, character and potential in tightly held Kensington are seldom offered for sale. Whether your vision is to restore and extend this grand villa into a magnificent family home or explore the subdivision possibilities (subject to the necessary consents), this is a once in a generation opportunity to create something truly extraordinary.
