Overview

A gracious past. A generous future.

There's still plenty of charm in this gracious Art Deco home, though its next chapter will call for more than a little attention. Set well back from a leafy street on a large allotment (830 sqm approx) in this particularly tightly held pocket and surrounded by some of Melbourne's most sought-after schools it offers scope for a substantial renovation and extension, or a substantial new home to take its place, subject to council approval. Slightly elevated, the home retains the elegance of its era, with generous proportions, decorative ceilings and parquetry floors. A spacious entrance leads to three bedrooms, a central bathroom, formal living spaces and a dining room. Beyond, the kitchen and family meals area open through glass doors to a sprawling, established garden. Hydronic heating, split-system heating and cooling, a separate laundry, side driveway and double carport are also in place. The appeal lies in the home's original character, the generous land and the possibilities for what comes next, all in a prime location.
