Overview

Spanish Mission Charm with An Architectural Future

Behind the captivating Spanish Mission facade of this solid-brick 1930s classic lies a prized opportunity for architectural transformation, with proposed concept plans by acclaimed Tecture Architecture envisioning a substantial contemporary family residence designed for large-scale living and entertaining (STCA). Occupying a generous 650sqm* allotment in the sought-after Summerhill Estate, mere steps from Hill 'n' Dale Park and the Ferndale Trail, the property is primed for its next chapter, with partial demolition already complete and considerable scope for an ambitious renovation. Retaining decorative ceiling roses and open fireplaces within its Art Deco reception rooms, the original architecture informs the proposed dual-level design, extending its Mediterranean influences into expansive contemporary interiors and sun-drenched poolside entertaining. With four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, multiple living areas, and landscaped gardens, Tecture's concept plans offer an impressive vision for the future, while allowing the flexibility to pursue an entirely individual design (STCA). Within easy walking distance of Ashburton Village's cafes and shops, Burwood & Ashburton train and tram connections, Summerhill Park Kindergarten, Ashburton Primary School and local parklands, the address is zoned for Ashwood High School and close to leading private schools, Deakin University and Chadstone Shopping Centre. For those looking to establish their future in this much-loved neighbourhood, the opportunity to transform a character-rich original into a luxurious new residence is compelling, promising a wonderful new chapter in one of Glen Iris' most desirable pockets. *approximate land size.
