If only the fruit trees at 5 Cantlebury Road could talk ... oh, the stories they'd tell of this family home and its huge gardens.
Sitting on a spectacular 1251 square metres in R25 zoning, close to Bayswater's train station redevelopment, this property is packed with potential. Choose to:
- Retain the charming character home and enjoy the expansive gardens
- Retain the original home and potentially built two homes to the rear
- Extend the original home and still have enough space for a second home to the rear
- Maximise the block's potential and take advantage of the triplex-development site
Whatever you do, you're limited only by your imagination - although perhaps you'll be inspired by the family who has owned this property since it was built in the 1950s.
The red-brick character home was built in 1955 and was turned into a home very soon thereafter, by a local family.
Cantlebury Road was an area that was seen as very safe, with long-term neighbours on all sides of the street who looked out for each other and who worked together and went to school together.
Indeed, the closeness of the schools, the shops down on Beechboro Road and public transport were vital, as the family did not own a car and went everywhere on foot.
Half a century later, little has changed. The home is still brilliantly located close to schools, shops and public transport, while the street remains safe, friendly and welcoming.
Once the block, which was overrun with prickly bramble bush, was cleared by the owners, it was then cultivated into an edible garden of herbs and vegetables, along with fruit trees and, of course, the olive trees, which remain bountiful.
Today, one family's chapter of the story at Cantlebury Road is quietly closing. Will you turn the page on a new chapter, to create your own happy memories at number 5?
