A rare jewel presents itself with this sandstone fronted solid brick home sited on a large traditional allotment (682sqm approx). Offering the dual opportunity to renovate, restore, extend and renew into a fabulous character home or to demolish, sub-divide (STCC), build and reap the rewards of highly sought after contemporary residences.
Sited on a large traditional allotment, the land could well support a subdivision creating two new allotments (STCC), or for the bold renovator, all the character features are in place, waiting for revitalisation.
3.0m high ceilings with ornate ceiling roses, art deco cornices, high skirting boards, traditional picture rails and scattered character features from a bygone era appear throughout a four main room configuration with an additional sunroom or 3rd bedroom at the rear. All wet areas are functional but in need of upgrade with bath, laundry and separate toilet.
A steel framed, weather board clad detached games room and two bedrooms offers over 70m2 of additional living space, perfect for the larger family or those who like to entertain at home. Utilise as is, or convert to a man cave, studio or granny flat (STCC), the options are endless!
The true value here lies in the large rectangular allotment, renovate, extend and renew, add some landscaping and create a wonderful character family home, or explore the potential developmental possibilities. Either way, act fast, this is rare earth!
