Here's your chance to own a slice of Melbourne's history. The stables at the rear of this enormous 1240sqm block housed the winner of the 1973 Melbourne Cup, Gala Supreme, and the delightful Californian Bungalow residence was home to his trainer Ray Hutchins.
This incredible property truly reflects a bygone era and has so much to offer. The home retains its charming period features such as generously-proportioned rooms and corridors, open fireplaces, leadlight windows and sanded timber floors and while much of the restoration work has already been completed, it still offers heaps of potential and plenty of room to extend (STCA). It also offers every convenience you'd expect to find in a contemporary home, including a light-filled designer kitchen with granite bench tops and stainless-steel Smeg appliances, ducted heating, air conditioning and chic modern bathrooms.
There are three spacious bedrooms (master with ensuite and walk-through robe), an oversized formal lounge with a bay window and an open-plan dining and living room overlooking the al fresco deck.
Surrounded by parkland, it's also within easy walking distance from all that Mordialloc has to offer - shops and cafes, transport, walking and cycling tracks and the beach.
