Bring your paintbrush and personal style, or redevelop STCC. The family home of your dreams is only a bid away on this gorgeous 839m2 corner block; stunningly located within walking distance of Da Costa Park Reserve, breezy tram travel between the city and sea, local shops and cafes, and popular schools including Glenelg Primary and Our Lady of Grace; also zoned for Brighton High and close to Jetty Road's food and fashion scene.
This fantastic opportunity awaits your transforming touch! Like many of the homes in this tightly-held neighbourhood, this sleeping double-brick beauty has been the pride and joy of one close-knit family since it was built in 1948.
The dream begins with lots of lovely space: in fact more than 180m2 disposed as two huge living areas, a modern eat-in kitchen with Westinghouse appliances, functional full bathroom, laundry with extra toilet, three bedrooms and a study or Bed 4 - all with a jaw-dropping range of timber built-ins that would take a lifetime to fill!
The family room's wet bar suggests there's fun to be had: gathered around the open fire, surrounded by warm natural timbers and stone. French doors here and in adjoining formal spaces, featuring instant gas warmth, encourage a life spent outdoors, relaxing and entertaining in paved privacy, with a built-in barbecue and deep veranda for all-weather enjoyment.
Give everything a lick of fresh white paint and polish the boards for instant Scandi appeal, or rev up your architect for more ambitious plans.
With an18.80m frontage to Allen Terrace and 85.98m to Buttrose Street, (including 4.32m corner cut-off), the block enjoys a sunny North-facing aspect and unrestricted access for building projects; with plenty of space for a pool and side-by-side auto garaging, subject as always to the necessary consents. A cruise around the neighbourhood should give you plenty of inspiration.
Renovate or redevelop? Whichever way you're leaning; this is an opportunity too good to miss and you can always rent it out while you decide! Please register your interest to avoid disappointment.
