98 Booth Street, Golden Square, Vic 3555

Perched on the high side of the road behind the always coveted "white picket fence" comes this partially renovated Victorian gem… without the hefty price tag! Set on a family sized allotment of 923m2 and conveniently located within walking distance to St John Of God Hospital, transport, shops and the CBD - the home is as ripe as the Spring for picking!

Offering a mouth watering and affordable opportunity for first home buyers, investors or home renovators alike, the time is right to unleash the potential and reap the rewards! The homes attractive facade and lovely curb side appeal will immediately have your creative juices flowing. You are enticed inside via a decked front verandah, a lovely vantage spot for the coming warm evenings! Inside, the home has retained many period features including high ceilings, timber floors, open fireplaces, raw timber doors and windows and plantation shutters. The current floor plan is flexible, and is one that can be configured to your needs. Whether you need three bedrooms, a study and main living area? Or four bedrooms? Two living areas? Add an ensuite? It's completely up to you!

At present, three generous sized bedrooms are set up, all with built in storage, two with ceiling fans and master with split system. For future planning, the master bedroom has room to the side that would easily house an ensuite and walk in robe extension. Most of the home has been repainted, and there are newish carpets in the bedrooms. The central kitchen and lounge are open plan, and the kitchen is serviceable for now until it's time to renovate. Linking with the main living space is the formal dining room with open fire, ideal as a second living space, large study/library or fourth bedroom. The bathroom and laundry area at the rear is fully functional and has seen minor updates through the years, but will benefit from attention either now or down the track.

Surrounding the home is a well landscaped and established block measuring a tick under a quarter acre. A lovely cottage garden suits to perfection, with loads of off street parking available for the cars, boats AND trailers! If outdoor living is your forte, there are some fabulous spots to entertain or relax including the all-weather deck area, and the lovely alfresco style courtyard. There is a lawn area for the kids and pets, as well as a kids play area to the side of the house. A 6m x 3.5m shed has concrete floor, and can provide covered secure parking if needed.

Bursting with the character and charm that only lovers of period homes will appreciate, the potential is palpitating and ready to unleash. First home buyers and renovators - live as is comfortably or renovate/extend over time. But don't leave your run too late, as gems like these do not usually last long!
