9 Carpenter Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Victorian elegance with potential, in a brillant location, featuring excellent rear car access.
Full of period character, enchanting street appeal and endless potential, 'Addieville' will steal your heart and excite the inner renovator in you.
A classic block-fronted 2BR+ Victorian, just minutes from the beach and seconds to Church St, she is a gorgeous home set on approximately 468 sqm. With so much charm from yesteryear, it's easy to see why she has been in the same family for over 60 years.
But the years have passed and it's now time for Addieville to shine once again with a well-considered renovation. Easily liveable in her present condition, the potential to conduct a thorough period restoration is very exciting indeed. The tall ceilings, large rooms and ornate features are already here but the rest is up to you. A wide, gracious hallway guides you from entry into two bedrooms - one with BIRs and ceiling rose. Continue down the hallway to the bathroom, renovated in the early 70's. Two spacious living rooms face each other towards the end of the house - one a formal dining room with gas heater and large window overlooking a huge rear garden. The adjacent room is set up for daily living with a feeling of comfort thanks to glass sliding doors and rustic timber bookshelves flanking a slate surround gas heater. The kitchen includes a gas stove with plenty of bench space & central meals area. However, for a home in such a brilliant location, close proximity to cafes & restaurants, transport and schools, your renovation will most certainly consider replacing the kitchen or in fact the entire back half of this home to incorporate more bedrooms and a contemporary open plan living space. The spacious rear garden also includes a single garage (leading off a right of way) and an adjoining bungalow, rear storage shed, plus outdoor laundry with second WC. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to secure this gorgeous, treasured home and renovate for today's lifestyle.
