In a locale that’s among inner Melbourne’s most celebrated, this classic Californian Bungalow on a substantial 307m2 represents a rare opportunity to make a mark on history laced Cremorne. Without any heritage overlay to mean a renovation, single new home, or multiple residences are all equally viable (STCA), the home’s timeless façade offers a charming introduction to spaces beyond. A modest interior provides stirring scope to restore and revitalise, with its current layout comprising two generous bedrooms and large living and kitchen/dining rooms, while a standalone bungalow/third bedroom, separate bathroom, full size laundry, shed, garage, and secure parking for four more cars all feature in a sizeable backyard. With wide rear lane frontage broadening the design possibilities of a reimagining or development, the home’s other highlights include high, detailed ceilings, sash and bay windows, and Baltic pine floorboards. Right by the Yarra River, Botanic Gardens, and South Yarra’s Chapel Street, Domain Road, and some Melbourne’s most prestigious schools, it’s only footsteps to thriving local bars and cafés, vibrant Swan and Church Streets, Richmond Station, numerous trams, the Melbourne Park precinct, and MCG.
