This charming residence (c.1910) presents a unique Hawthorn opportunity directly opposite the much loved ‘Rocket Park’ and presents a great investment opportunity or perhaps the perfect canvas to create your dream family home. The façade and original dwelling are solid double red-brick, with numerous early 1900s period details, including slate roof, high ceilings, and large room proportions. Beautifully presented, the accommodation incorporates three large format bedrooms, two with built in robes, living room, central bathroom with shower and bath, a functional kitchen incorporating gas cooktops which flow into a light filled north facing study which provides a versatile space, with the potential to serve as a retreat or an additional living area. A separate studio/ bungalow at the rear includes an additional bedroom, kitchen, shower and living area. The lush front garden wraps around the side of the home, featuring established olive trees and lovingly maintained plants. The corner site presents good flexibility in terms of renovation potential (subject to council approval) and furthermore the residence sits favorably on the site. A rear courtyard accessible via Malmsbury Street provides off street parking for two cars, with a garage providing additional parking and invaluable storage space.
A five-minute walk takes you to Auburn Railway Station, Auburn Village; and a ten minute walk will put you at the doorstep of Melbourne’s leading schooling options, trams and the area’s leading shopping precincts. With a block size of approximately 480sqms, situated in a rarely-exchanged area – this is a compelling opportunity.
