Overview

Rare Opportunity in Coveted Locale

A rare opportunity to renovate this modern mid-century home, create your own architectural dream home or develop in this blue-chip Brighton location offering 558sqm* of land with rare dual street access. Number 96 New St is a character-filled circa-1960 modernist home, with separate self-contained bungalow, in a highly sought-after and tightly held beachside location. Leave the car at home and enjoy a short walk to Dendy Street beach and iconic bathing boxes, Church Street boutiques, restaurants, cafes, Palace Theatre, Middle Brighton or Brighton Beach station (direct access to the city) and a choice of prized schools such as Brighton Beach Primary at the end of the rear laneway and St Joan of Arc Primary School a short walk away. Other prestigious schools are within easy reach including Brighton Grammar, Firbank Grammar, Haileybury College and St Leonard's. Set within established gardens, this high-set block offers dual access and off-street parking with a driveway and carport from New Street, plus a single carport with tilt door and direct access from a wide rear laneway off Maher Street. The expansive, private rear lawn and gardens are sun drenched, and the self-contained studio/bungalow (on title) could be ideal as a work-from-home office with direct separate laneway access, teenager accommodation, games room or could be renovated or rebuilt. Retaining many of its mid-century modernist features including floor-to-ceiling windows, raked ceilings, and original joinery, the light-filled three-bedroom double-story home has an open floorplan and is equipped with central gas heating, split system heating/cooling and quality kitchen appliances including an electric cooktop, oven, and dishwasher. Architectural plans are available for a major renovation maintaining the existing side walls (STCA), or build your own architect designed dream-home, or two, (STCA) in this lifestyle-focussed Brighton neighbourhood with foreshore parks and the Bay Trail within easy access. *Approximate land size
