131 Nelson Road
South Melbourne

A classical blank canvas, ready and waiting for a contemporary renewal, this traditional, double-story, three-four bedroom Victorian residence is distinguished by the stately grandeur, rock-solid bones and regal sense of proportion that are so defining of its original era. Exclusively cast on the city's southern fringe, just metres from St Vincents Gardens and Albert Park Village, this is an opportunity to bring your own vision to an inner-suburban classic.

Priceless potential is encapsulated in this home with towering ceilings, Baltic Pine flooring, and a kitchen / meals that can be opened-up to a rear north facing courtyard, as well as a formal lounge with an open fireplace and a dining room. Upstairs, one of the three bedrooms has been updated with its own kitchen - which may come in handy through the renovation process - plus there is a traditional top-floor balcony off the main bedroom. Just a few minutes by tram from the CBD and Southbank, this brilliant location allows you to choose between the vibrancy of Clarendon St and the more sedately paced Bridport St for you coffees, wines, a bite to eat or your shopping, plus you have South Melbourne Market nearby and excellent local schooling at Albert Park College and at Albert Park Primary School.
