Be swept away by the potential on Were St.'s historic locale. Nestled between Brighton East's two grandest Victorian mansions (Chevy Chase and Ratho), this approx 7763sqft/721sqm property offers sweeping potential to build or renovate beyond a spectacular approx 97'/29m frontage.
Pace out this curvaceous frontage, take in the wide northerly aspect to the glorious gardens of Chevy Chase and start planning to use this unique frontage to create a high-impact new luxury home. With this spectacular streetscape out front and fine homes all around, this broad property offers rare potential to create your own modern-day mansion between these grand old homes.
Alternatively, appreciate the architectural integrity of the existing solid-brick home and build on a well-proportioned base virtually untouched since it was architect-designed and built in the 1940s. Home to the same family since that time, this existing two bedroom home makes excellent use of sun with north-facing lounge (with open-fireplace) and separate dining (beside a vintage kitchen), while bedrooms are zoned with a large original bathroom in an extendable separate wing.
Gas and panel heated with a functional garage, this superbly solid home offers an exciting base for renovation and extension...at the very least its readily rentable condition will pay your way while you plan to capitalise on this exceptional position with the South Rd schools at the door, Hampton St within a walk and Brighton beach within a minutes.
