18 Cheltenham Road, Black Rock, Vic 3193

Sharing a prestigious address with Royal Melbourne & Sandringham Golf courses, this corner positioned, original 3 bedroom home exudes old world character and offers exceptional scope for unit redevelopment (STCA). Strutting proudly on a premium corner block of land measuring 739 m2 (7980 sq ft), a brand new family dream home could well be the best option to select here. However, once you fully appreciate the level of charm and old world grace which characterizes this existing solid brick home, you may change your mind. It would be very difficult to say goodbye to the almost gothic dark stained timber doors, architraves and feature wall panelling - or the sky high, decorative ceilings, or even the quaint feature leadlight windows throughout. Some visionary purchasers, perhaps you, may decide to restore the front portion of this home which offers an easy flow layout with 2 bedrooms (including a master BR with leafy front garden views), a particularly graceful formal lounge room with cozy open fireplace, a separate dining room (with rev cycle AC) and 3rd bedroom/study leading from it. As much as the existing kitchen with original Metters gas oven and cook top has a great, historic feel, realistically you would let it go (along with the outside laundry) and extend outwards into the overgrown rear yard. There?s plenty of space, particularly if you relocate the old garage which has definitely seen better days. Only seconds from Black Rock Primary School, the village shops, parkland and everything else this area has to offer, this is one opportunity you don?t want to miss out on.
