What's around 88A William Street

Heritage with Huge Potential Opposite the Park

Situated in 'Grosvenor Mansions', that began life as a row of handsome Victorian terraces before being converted to apartments between the wars, this older-style abode is now ready for its next reincarnation. In need of renovation that would really bring the spaces to life, the top floor home has no active owners' corporation and is accessed via an Arts & Crafts external staircase which leads to the front-facing verandah. Inside, the accommodation is crowned by soaring ceilings, while timber floors are there to be fully uncovered and polished to please. To the front, the main bedroom is of generous proportions and features an open fireplace that could be restored, creating an intimate space for cold winter nights. Further on is a well-sized living area, while the second bedroom is filled with light and would be a peaceful space to work from home. A central kitchen and bathroom are also offered along with a wall heater in the hallway. An exciting opportunity to create a stylish inner-city haven with true character and a heritage soul, the home would respond well to a new kitchen and bathroom, a lick of paint and some gentle maintenance. Once complete, it would appeal to any busy owner-occupier or investor. Opposite the pocket park, and the easiest walk to bustling cafes, vibrant shops & city-bound trams, there is also the station within steps to take you to Chapel Street, the MCG or further afield.

I’d rate him as one of the very best in the business.

Sam is both highly knowledgeable about the market and also sincere and honest. It’s really been a pleasure to work with him. I’ve bought in the past through Sam, as well as sold, and been super happy on each side of the equation. While many will say that real estate dealings can be stressful I never found them to be so with Sam. I’d rate him as one of the very best in the business.

Rhianna was always very professional and friendly.

Rhianna was always very professional and friendly. She gave us great advice about preparing the property for sale and got us a price we were very happy with. She also kept us in the loop regarding buyers throughout and, overall, the experience of working with her was excellent.
