A truly magnificent 1925 Bungalow located in one of Hawthorn’s most prestigious and stunning tree lined avenues.
Located behind a feature brush and brick fence and double western red cedar gates, this home is an exciting opportunity for you to upgrade/extend (subject to Council Approvals) and will appeal to those looking for a gracious family home which is ready to move in to or a solid base to start from to create your own masterpiece.
Packed to the rafters with so many original features including 11ft ceilings, polished Baltic pine flooring, timber hall arch, picture shelving, timber panelled doors, leadlight windows and 1920’s skirtings and architraves.
The layout is still very original. Entrance to the home is gained through a character front door with side panes of leadlight and a wide entry hall creating an elegant and warm entrance, 4 bedrooms in total, formal dining, large kitchen, separate laundry, bathroom and comfortable light filled living room, 2 bedrooms added on to the back of the house some 20 years ago look out onto the lush green garden and lawn.
Other features unique to this family home are the rough cast features above the corbelled brick lines and the double gable detail giving a grander facade than many other homes of this era.
787m2 (approx.) of land and several sheds allow endless opportunities for further development of the space to enhance and compliment an already exceptional property.
Hawthorn, situated approx 7.5km from the CBD, is a low density Heritage area that is highly regarded as the only true and complete Garden Suburb in Australia. There are tree lined avenues, historic buildings, reserves and an exotic mix of deciduous and evergreen ornamental trees.
Several great cafes are only a short stroll away including great Greek food at the Astros restaurant and coffee and cake at The Pantry on Eggmont.
Easy access to public transport with direct route to the city via bus and rail, close to Mitcham shopping centre, and boutique shopping, cafes and restaurants on Unley and King William roads makes this home even more desirable. A selection of well respected private and public schools are also within close proximity.
A short walk to the end of the street will take you to the Hawthorn oval and a little further along Angas Road is the Mitcham Library.
Escape the bustle of the city and enjoy a relaxing picnic or perhaps take a wander along the scenic Brown Hill Creek. You may be surprised by the beautiful varieties of orchids and other wildflowers in bloom, or the lively and colourful displays of our native birds.
During summer, a cool walk, coloured with blue flowering jacaranda trees and agapanthus, can be enjoyed along the shaded streets of Hawthorn.
Don’t let this opportunity go by!
