Finding a one of a kind property is no easy task, let alone finding one that has the history and position that is simply rarely seen in such a significant area. Having been built by and held in the current family (the Lawsons of Lawson St) for the last 70+ years, this redeeming residence is an absolute marvellous mark in time that is ready for new owners to take over, restore to its former glory and/or build new (STCA). One of just two homes in this picturesque no-through road, that not only abuts one of the area’s main landmarks in Dendy Park but takes in a spectacular outlook across it, the opportunity here really cannot be understated. Period adornments and an elevated aspect are hallmarks of this significant piece of Brighton East history that boasts beautifully landscaped gardens, multiple entrance points, high ceilings and a conducive dual level layout that makes the most of its undeniable location. Inside you’ll find an open plan living, dining and central kitchen precinct that was specifically designed to bring family and friends together, while a study/home office here provides convenience and versatility. Three good-sized bedrooms on this level compliment two further bedrooms upstairs, the bright bathroom has a separate toilet, while a family/rumpus room connects cleverly to an abundant wrap-around style outdoor space. There really is something for everyone in a beautifully presented backyard that features an elevated sun-drenched entertaining deck, delightful gardens, a separate paved courtyard style seating area, winding paths and a shed/workshop. The choice to purchase this property is an easy one, but the decision on what to do next is the one that will truly excite. Reinvigorate this much loved and well-maintained home with a classy, contemporary renovation or plan, design and execute on your own family home (STCA) akin to what the original owners did many years ago. With Dendy Park as its neighbour and Brighton Golf Club across the road, within walking distance to prestigious schools such as Brighton Secondary College, St Leonard’s College and Haileybury College, close to Patterson Station, central Brighton, Bentleigh and Hampton shops, cafes and restaurants, this is a rare real estate asset ready for new owners to move in and make cherished memories of their own.
