Perfectly positioned on the sunny side of one of Albert Park’s most coveted streets, this freestanding c1915 residence presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to transform a character-filled home in a blue-chip bayside location.
Set on approximately 244sqm with a prized northerly rear aspect, the property’s timeless façade showcases all the hallmarks of its era, including coloured leadlight windows, a classic bullnose verandah and ornate ceiling details, offering the ideal foundations for a sympathetic restoration or contemporary renovation (STCA).
A wide arched hallway with intricate plasterwork introduces three generous bedrooms, two with original fireplaces, and a formal lounge warmed by a gas heater. Towards the rear, an older extension comprises a kitchen, meals area, bathroom and separate WC, providing comfortable accommodation while plans are made for an inspired redesign.
Bathed in northern light, the rear yard offers laneway access with a roller door and potential off-street parking, alongside a garage or shed that could be further enhanced. Whether updating within the existing footprint or extending upwards or outwards (STCA), the scope to create a refined family home or downsizer’s retreat is immense.
Just 400m (approx.) to the beachfront and 300m (approx.) to Victoria Avenue’s renowned cafés, restaurants and boutiques, this tightly held pocket also enjoys proximity to tram routes, Albert Park College, MSAC and Albert Park Lake, ensuring a lifestyle of absolute convenience and enduring appeal
