Overview

A Rough Diamond with Endless Potential

Nestled on a generous, level block of approximately 509m², with R4 zoning and valuable rear lane access, this classic weatherboard home is a rare opportunity for those with vision. Centrally positioned within easy walking distance of Mayfield’s vibrant café and retail hub, the property combines convenience with exciting potential for transformation. While the home is undeniably ready for some attention, its original character and timeless charm remain beautifully evident. For a builder, renovator or savvy buyer looking for their next project, this is a home where the rewards could be well worth the effort. Step inside from the front verandah and discover a host of classic period features, including high ceilings, a Georgian archway, dado boards and timber flooring — all providing a wonderful foundation for a sympathetic renovation. At the rear, a large, covered deck sits beneath established trees, creating a private setting for outdoor entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying the surrounds. The property also offers a double carport with convenient rear lane access, adding valuable off-street parking and further practicality. And then there’s the potential. Whether your vision is to restore the existing home to its former glory, create a beautiful family residence, or explore the possibility of a granny flat (STCA), this property offers plenty of scope to make your mark. A recent building report also highlights the home's structural worth, providing an encouraging starting point for the next chapter. A property with character, land, location and potential — all that’s missing is someone with the vision to unlock it. Come and inspect today!
