Nestled in the heart of Golden Square a short stroll to the shops is this attractive red brick Victorian gem, brimming with the timeless character and period charm of yesteryear. Built in the late 1800's, lovers of historical sentiment and wonder will immediately become attached to this grand old lady and her bygone features.

In need of a substantial renovation and some visionary ideas, this property is well and truly worthy of your hard work and hard earned. The bones are here, so renovate, restore and even extend and you will be most satisfied with the end result.

Set on a 936m2 allotment, the property neighbours a church on one side and a school on the other. The original Victorian red brick home has been extended to the side in the 1970's. Inside the home, many of the original period features have been well retained. 14ft ceilings sit beautifully above you, polished timber floors lie soundly below, fire places with mantles adorn each room, ceiling roses and stained glass windows are a feature, and the entire western wall of the house is made of beautiful sandstone - a lovely backdrop for a sunny courtyard!

Its current configuration presents three good sized bedrooms, the master with walk in robe. There are two bathrooms, one a semi ensuite to the master bedroom, the other located in the rear vestibule, along with a sleep out or fourth bedroom. The kitchen is very retro yet fully functional with gas cooking facilities, loads of cupboard space and a meals area in the centre. The main lounge or dining room lies through the servery window from the kitchen, whilst the large separate family room with split system heating/cooling forms the basis of the extension to the side.

Outside, a large block has so much scope to extend the house or maybe subdivide (STCA). If alfresco entertaining is your forte, there is ample room to design a fabulous outdoor space and garden to enjoy. A carport and sundry shedding are handy at the rear, whilst the shady verandah at the front is a great vantage point to sit on a summers evening.

This property will suit those who appreciate period splendour, and bringing an old girl back to life. Sound like a project you could sink yourself into? Then don't delay and call now for an inspection. Properties with this much potential in this location don't usually last long!
