In a tightly held pocket of West Footscray, 15 Khartoum Street presents an increasingly rare proposition: 427sqm* of land, valuable front and rear access, and the freedom to imagine what comes next.
Here, the address is as compelling as the opportunity. Just 9.2km* from the CBD, the property occupies a city-fringe position where village-style convenience, established amenity and easy access to Melbourne’s centre converge. Barkly Village, local cafes, parks and sought-after schools are all within easy reach, reinforcing the enduring appeal of this connected inner-west setting.
Beyond the address, it is the land that commands attention. Deep, generous and enhanced by rear laneway access, the allotment provides an exceptional canvas for a considered future vision. The existing period weatherboard can be transformed through a sophisticated renovation and extension, or the site can be reimagined with a brand-new residence or dual-occupancy outcome, subject to council approval (STCA).
Importantly, the property is not affected by a heritage overlay, adding another layer of flexibility for those looking to make the most of the site.
The current three-bedroom home retains the charm and proportions of its era, offering a tangible starting point for a contemporary old-meets-new transformation. Yet for buyers with a longer-term perspective, its greatest attraction may be the land itself — a substantial holding in a location where opportunities of this scale are becoming increasingly difficult to secure.
Whether the vision is a beautifully considered family home, a statement new build or a carefully conceived development, 15 Khartoum Street offers the rare combination of land, location and possibility.
A property with the dimensions to dream big and the position to make it matter.
