69 Ormond Esplanade, Elwood, Vic 3184

Offered in time-capsule condition, "Bowreah" is one of the last great beachfront opportunities... on one of this beachfront esplanade's last great undercapitalised corners. Positioned directly opposite the parklands, tennis courts and cafes of the beach reserve adjacent a pedestrian crossing, this solid-brick 1920's residence offers a substantial three bedroom floorplan with ground-floor water views today and potential for a park and bay panorama tomorrow.

An exceptional example of the era maintained in exceptional original condition, the home features a curvaceous bay window onto a wide return veranda, lavish leadlight, panelling and decorative ceilings and grandly-proportioned interconnected lounge and dining rooms. Updated with a classic timber kitchen, huge bathroom, reverse-cycle air-conditioning and a gas-log fireplace, the home also benefits from side garaging from Vautier St.

Return this increasingly rare original to its former glory or glory in alternative uses for this prime beachfront site (subject to Council Approval). With the bay and parklands stretched out in front, Ormond Rd's cafes and restaurants tucked away behind and the CBD within an easy beachfront commute, this is a beachfront opportunity of historic potential.
