An extraordinary Edwardian home with inspiring possibilities
Since its conception in c1926, this grand Edwardian home has stood proudly at the top of the hill, offering private access via Montague Avenue. Set on a sprawling 852m2 (approx.) site consisting of two lots, the home is a thrilling opportunity to restore the original splendour of its era or to create a new beginning with either one or two luxurious new home designs (subject to council approval).
Welcomed by a tuck-pointed façade, the home reminisces its former days, wrapped by 10-foot decorative ceilings and scattered with original pendant lights, cast-iron fireplaces with timber mantlepieces, and leadlight features. The flexible floorplan comprises four bedrooms, an old-world bathroom, and a formal lounge room at front, while at the rear, an open plan domain nurtures family relaxation and daily meals, incorporating a fully appointed kitchen with gas cooking.
Outside, a brick patio hosts barbecue celebrations amid the rambling gardens, complemented by a lock-up garage with access via Montague Avenue, and an under-house workshop with plenty of space for storage and cellaring.
The perfect place to realise the home of your dreams, this prestigious locale is mere footsteps from High Street eateries and shops, Glen Iris Park playground and the Gardiners Creek trail, while minutes from the Monash freeway, Ashburton shopping strip, and leading schools including zoning for the esteemed Auburn High School.
