Overview

Corner Block Opportunity with Great Potential

Positioned in one of Rathmines' most tightly held lakeside pockets, 49 Dorrington Road represents a compelling opportunity for owner-occupiers, renovators, and developers alike. Set on a level, fenced 736sqm corner block, the property benefits from excellent street frontage and access, creating genuine flexibility for future development, extensions, or reconfiguration (STCA). The existing three-bedroom residence offers comfortable, functional living with ducted air-conditioning, ceiling fans throughout, two bathrooms, and a family room suited to everyday use. An original kitchen adds character and provides a solid base for renovation, while the undercover rear balcony overlooks the yard and offers a peaceful outdoor retreat. The corner block position is a true highlight, allowing for separate access points and enhanced usability of the land. A single carport with a lockable workshop or storage area services the main home, while the generous, level yard opens the door to a range of value-adding possibilities; from further improvements to potential dual-occupancy or secondary dwelling considerations (STCA). Adding to the appeal is the self-contained bedsit located at the rear of the property. Converted from an extended garage, it includes a bedroom, bathroom, laundry, air-conditioning, and a private, fully fenced setting. This space lends itself well to short-term accommodation, guest or extended family use, or as a holding income while future plans are explored. Conveniently located just 1.6km from Rathmines Shops, 1km to Rathmines Catalina Park and boat ramp, and only 400m to the waterfront reserve at the end of Bayswater Road, the property combines lifestyle appeal with strong long-term upside. With its desirable corner allotment, practical layout, and development potential (STCA), 49 Dorrington Road is a standout opportunity to secure a prime landholding in a blue-chip Rathmines location.
