Positioned in one of Lavington's quiet, established pockets, 553 Roach Street presents a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of local history-while putting your own stamp on the future.
Built circa 1890, this double-brick residence is a testament to enduring craftsmanship, with features that are increasingly hard to find. From the Murray pine floorboards underfoot to the soaring 10-foot ceilings overhead, this home is brimming with character. Ornate cornices and a welcoming verandah hint at a bygone era, while the functional layout offers flexibility and vision for reinvention.
Set on a substantial 971m² (approx.) corner allotment, the home comprises two generous bedrooms, a central bathroom with shower, vanity and bath, and dual access including a charming second entry via the front bedroom-perfect for a home office, studio, or consulting space.
Whether you're a lover of heritage architecture, an experienced renovator, or a creative buyer ready to unlock potential, this property holds all the right ingredients for transformation. With its generous block size and side access, there's also exciting subdivision potential (STCA) for those looking to further capitalise.
And once renovated, this character-filled home in such a walkable, amenity-rich location offers the ideal setting for a bed-and-breakfast or short-stay accommodation, tapping into Lavington's popularity with regional visitors and travellers alike.
The position is equally compelling-just moments to Lavington Square Shopping Centre, Jelbart Park, and within walking distance to both Lavington Public School and Murray High School. The convenience of major amenities is matched only by the peace of the surrounding streetscape.
Opportunities to restore and reimagine homes like this are becoming increasingly rare. With its solid foundations, irreplaceable features, and a location that ticks all the boxes, this is your chance to create something truly special.
