On 784sqm of land with a wide 20.1m frontage approx and a rear northern aspect (perfect for the modern floorplan), the choice is yours: renovate and restore, rebuild a new luxurious home or redevelop (STCA).
Currently a well laid-out home in need of some love, its mid-century soul is present in the form of shiplap wood-lined walls, slate floors and vast opposing windows furnished with linen curtains offering flow, light and a delightful breeze. Boasting dual living spaces comprising a generous living room zoned for lounge, dining and a fitted office, as well as a separate rumpus room all cleverly connected to a cheerful kitchen with terrific storage before spilling onto the lush grassed yard.
