Proudly situated on 705m2 block with a frontage of 15.24m, this 1930s sandstone home on a prized corner block is a flip away from reliving its glory days, just 10 minutes from the CBD.

Make no mistake, much of the flip will be cosmetic; the robust timber architraves are as crisp as the decorative ceilings that hover high above, and the original timber floors are just screaming to come out from under the carpet in this structurally sound home.

And with 705 square metres of land at your disposal, a rear extension feels like the logical choice once the original two-bedroom abode is brought back to life or if your wanting to development the site, there is great opportunity to do so (stcc).

Highlights:
- Set on a quiet tree-lined street
- Huge lounge room with gas heater and original fireplace (filled in)
- Beautiful bay windows to master bedroom
- Large kitchen with adjacent lean-to and second bedroom at rear
- Large garage to rear yard - with option for car access from Merlon Avenue
- Walking distance from Forest Avenue Reserve and tram stop
- Sandstone façade is in great condition

And it all sits in the zone for Black Forest Primary School and on the doorstep (but quietly set back from) the recently upgraded South Road, leaving you with a perfect family-friendly launching pad to the city and sea.
