Overview

Prestigious Golden Mile Address with Exceptional Potential

Spectacularly positioned on 840 sqm (approx) with a broad 18.3m frontage and a prized north rear-facing garden, this Spanish Mission residence presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure a Golden Mile address of rare distinction. Just metres from Brighton’s blue-chip beachfront, the site provides the perfect canvas to bring to life a new architectural masterpiece or a benchmark dual occupancy (STCA) amongst some of Melbourne’s most prestigious homes. At the same time, the existing three-bedroom residence evokes memories of the glamour and grace of the 1930s. Cherished by one family for over 35 years, it features high decorative ceilings, intricate plaster mouldings and hardwood floors, with a columned portico leading to gracious formal lounge and dining rooms, each with an open fireplace. A grand, light-filled family room opens to the gardens, while a versatile kitchen and dining area, paved terrace and elegant bathroom highlight the home’s scope for revival. The deep, sun-soaked rear garden inspires thoughts of future outdoor entertaining, a pool or pavilion, with abundant space to extend or even add a second storey to take full advantage of the sun-soaked orientation. Whether retaining its Hollywood-era character through stunning renovation or seizing the opportunity to start anew, this is a once-in-a-generation chance to secure an exceptional parcel of land in Bayside’s most exclusive setting. A significant prospect whichever path is taken, complete with central heating and a remote double garage, within a tight held beachside pocket close to leading schools, village shops, waterfront cafes, restaurants and lush parklands. For more information about this exceptional Golden Mile opportunity please contact Owen Bowditch at Buxton Brighton on 0481 392 217.
