Occupying a generous block of approximately 892 square metres, this single-level classic holds decades of stories within its walls, and plenty of opportunity for new ones to unfold.
The house is comfortable as it stands, with three bedrooms and a study, a central bathroom, a bright lounge with gas fireplace and a dining room connected to a big, functional kitchen. Hints of its era remain, from timber panelling to patterned carpets and a mural feature wall, details which give it character yet leave a blank canvas for renovation and extension. Or redevelop the site as one or two new homes (STCA). Step outside and the garden runs deep, with a driveway, carport and garage ready for cars, tools or weekend projects.
What makes it even more appealing is the location. Stroll to D R Atkinson Reserve, wander to Edwardes Street or Broadway for a coffee and shopping, and head to Reservoir Station for an easy city commute. Families have Reservoir Primary, St Gabriel's Primary and William Ruthven Secondary College close by, while Reservoir Village, Summerhill Shopping Centre, La Trobe University, Bundoora Park Farm and the Western Ring Road are all within easy reach.
For some, this will be the chance to refresh the home and blend modern updates with its original quirks. For others, it will be the land and the location that spark a brand-new beginning (STCA). Either way, it is a property with promise, personality and the kind of potential that does not come along every day.
