57 Raglan Street is being offered for exactly what it is: a circa 1880s brick and weatherboard home on an approx. 1,012m² allotment, in one of Maryborough's most central positions, requiring substantial work.
The home is in need of a full renovation, and buyers should expect significant costs to restore it. We want to be upfront about this so that every buyer comes in with clear expectations.
The home
Four bedrooms, a central living room, one bathroom and a rear sunroom. Original features include multiple chimneys. Services are connected, however no appliances are warranted to be in working order. Solar panels are installed and connected to the grid.
Outside
An older garage, a garden shed and a large backyard with room for landscaping, outdoor living or a substantial shed (subject to council approval).
The options
Buyers may choose to restore the home, renovate it, or, subject to council approval, demolish and build new. Any buyer considering demolition or major works should confirm with Central Goldfields Shire Council whether any planning or heritage controls apply to the site before purchasing.
Due diligence
The property is sold as is. We strongly encourage all buyers to inspect in person, obtain their own building and pest inspection, and seek independent advice on renovation or building costs before making an offer.
None of this should dampen your vision for what this home could become. Yes, it will take time, effort and money. But with the right hands and a clear plan, 57 Raglan Street has the potential to become a truly remarkable home, one that honours its history while giving you everything you want from modern living.
The value here is clear: a large central block with a home of genuine history, priced to reflect the work ahead.
