20m Frontage - Perfect for Renovators or Developers with Vision

This classic timber Californian family home offers the perfect opportunity for those with imagination and vision attracted to renovating a Californian - restoring it to its former glory whilst updating and extending the living areas in keeping with today's family needs; capitalising on a generous allotment and future capital gains prospects. Alternatively, it offers the new owners a brilliant site for the construction of a luxurious new home or there is room for two - making it an ideal site for developers to build dual townhouses (STCA). Underpinned by a sought-after family lifestyle location on the fringes of Balwyn and Canterbury enjoying the highly regarded benefits this area provides. Including close proximity to Surrey Hills or Mont Albert Villages, Maling or Whitehorse Road shops and cafes, John August Reserve plus access to schools including Chatham Primary and public transport options.

The existing home presents in comfortable order but would require a front-to-rear updating of the unrenovated interior. The accommodation is currently configured to include an arched hallway flowing to a sitting room and adjacent dining room, three bedrooms, all with BIRs, two with student desks, a period-style family bathroom and powder room. A central modern timber kitchen/meals opening to timber panelled informal living room with adjacent laundry and external WC. All overlooking deep rear garden with mature trees. Other features include ducted heating, gas heater (sitting room), R/C air conditioner (family room), 3,000ltr water tank, large double garage/storage and tandem off-street parking. Buyers should note the home could be occupied or leased out whilst a decision is made on its future and plans drawn up and approved by Council.

Land size: 855sqm approx.
