73 Carpenter Street, Quarry Hill VIC 3550

This Victorian era home, full of character and heritage charm, is a sweet little gem waiting to be polished.

Situated on a big block approx 610m, it has many original features intact and offers great scope for improvement for investors, owner occupiers or keen renovators.

The iron lace trimmed bull-nosed front verandah opens to the traditional central hallway with bedrooms on either side - both have high, decorative ceilings. The main bedroom features open fireplace with cast iron grate and timber over-mantel with the third bedroom further down the hallway.

The central lounge room boasts timber ceiling and dado lining boards, an open fireplace with mantelpiece and gas heater complemented by split system air conditioning.

The country-style kitchen includes a light-filled meals nook overlooking the big backyard, island bench breakfast bar, gas cooking and good storage while the fully renovated bathroom features walk in shower with rainfall shower head, vanity and WC.

The deep backyard is a blank canvas except for a shady palm tree in the back corner leaving ample room to extend the house or add a pool or shedding in the future.

The address says it all, it sits in fine company amid a neighbourhood of period homes within walking distance to schools, the railway station and CBD.

Don't overlook the character-filled appeal of this old soul - with a little love and some improvements it has the potential to become the right house on the right street once again.
