An exciting opportunity for first homebuyers or those with an eye for renovating, presents with this original weatherboard home on a flat, central Croydon allotment. Ready for a comprehensive rejuvenation or a brand new extension incorporating the façade of the current dwelling. The period charm with double hung windows, Baltic pine floors and elegantly turned veranda posts is extremely alluring, yet there are also further options to possibly re-build a new home or dual develop on the GRZ1 885m2 block with 20.12m frontage (STCA).
Inside, the neat floorplan comprises three zoned bedrooms plus a separate study/fourth bedroom near the front entrance with ornamental fireplace. The sunny master bedroom is fitted with a walk-in robe plus a partially updated ensuite with shower over bath. A handy rear access door leads to a decked area ripe for a makeover.
There are ample entertaining and relaxation zones with a light bathed lounge on entry flowing through to a dining area. A centrally placed kitchen is well equipped with timber cabinetry and Emilia s/s oven with 5-burner gas cooktop including a wok burner and Omega dishwasher. The generous open plan family room with ceiling fan and split system heating/cooling extends to an outdoor deck, ideal for relaxing and supervising while the children play in the spacious surrounds, which offer great convenience with an expansive, open rear lawn. The home further offers a laundry, garden shed, a double carport and extra parking area for vehicles, a trailer or caravan.
If you have a vision, this home and allotment will be the perfect foundation. Located within metres of renowned restaurants, eateries and bars including easy access to Croydon Central and Main Street precinct, Burnt Bridge Shops and Eastland and Chirnside Park Shopping Centres. Only a street away from Ainslee Parklands Primary and Park, along with Melba Secondary College. Excellent access to key Croydon schools including Yarra Valley Grammar, Luther College, Good Shepherd Primary and Oxley College, with seamless bus and train links to private Kew schools and the city, or close proximity to Eastlink. Minutes to the Mullum Mullum cycling and walking trails and handy to a range of medical and fitness services.
