Overview

Renovate or Redevelop—Exceptional Value Awaits

Sitting on a sizable 651 sqm (approx.) allotment and nestled behind a tranquil front garden, this north-facing home offers endless potential in the heart of Reservoir. A long driveway and secure gated access lead to a deep rear garden, setting the stage for comfortable living, thoughtful renovation, or smart redevelopment (STCA). Step inside to discover original hardwood floors and a bright living room with a gas heater, creating a cozy and inviting space. Adjacent to the living area is a north-facing double bedroom, basking in sunlight throughout the day. The central hallway, complete with a linen cupboard, connects two additional bedrooms—a spacious queen-sized room and another generous double—alongside a family bathroom ready for a modern update. The kitchen and dining area, featuring original cabinetry and ample storage, is the heart of the home, offering a serene view of the backyard. Just off the kitchen are a convenient laundry, a separate powder room, and secure garden access. Outside, the expansive backyard boasts mature trees, gardenia rose bushes, and a flourishing apricot tree that creates a shaded oasis. A large double shed adds versatility to this already impressive outdoor space. Ideally located, this property is within easy reach of Broadway Village, Northland Shopping and Reservoir Train Station. With Reservoir Leisure Centre, TW Andrews Reserve, and Darebin Creek’s picturesque trails nearby, this property blends lifestyle and convenience seamlessly. Whether you’re envisioning a refurbishment, building your dream family home, or exploring redevelopment opportunities, this property offers unparalleled potential and value. We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
