Expressions of Interest, closing 1st December at 12:00pm
In an address widely considered to be one of Melbournes most prestigious, the opportunity to acquire one of its original estate properties is exceedingly rare, a once in a generation event at best. Offered now for the first time since the middle of last century, WALDEN c.1920 on 1822sqm is indeed one of these extraordinary openings, an opportunity to create your own family legacy in these rarefied surroundings. Set back behind its 30m hedged frontage, a return drive glides through old world gardens to a handsome triple fronted facade where all the romance of the era is reflected in a statuesque porch entry, beautifully broad bay windows and rich red brick masonry. A formal foyer precedes large original sitting and dining rooms with high strapped ceilings and OFPs and a palatial main bedroom with WIR and ensuite. A functional modern kitchen with meals, extended family living areas, two upstairs bedrooms with BIRs/storage, a downstairs study/fourth bedroom and family bathroom offer immediate or readily lettable comfort complemented by ducted heating, a garden shed, carport and rear garage. Retain the grandeur of the original proportions, add contemporary sophistication with a magnificent renovation/extension (STCa) and take advantage of the sites significant size with northern rear to create a family home not only for the current generation but those that will follow in the future.
A roll call of Melbournes elite private schools, Burke and Cotham Road trams, many of the South Easts most renowned shopping and dining precincts and the Eastern Freeway are all available within minutes.
