A wonderful opportunity to acquire a perfectly positioned free standing, single fronted Victorian house which is ready and waiting for it’s next chapter.

Let the dreams begin as this house hasn’t been available for sale for over 40 years.

The property does have a Heritage Overlay and is an advanced state of dilapidation. The property is circa 1888.

The house is a timber framed structure and the original weatherboard has been covered with pressed metal weatherboard cladding. Limited original features are visible due to this covering.

The house has a low set timber floor frame and has advanced state of rot and insect infestation within these timbers. The floor frame has collapsed due to this decay and now providing inadequate support in the wall frames and thus the perimeter walls severely distorted and buckled.

The roofing is in poor condition and the roof drainage is poor or non-existent state, also the rear brick chimney is missing bricks.

There is a free standing garage within the backyard that was accessed via rear laneway. There is also a rotary clothesline.

The interior of the house is in a poor condition with damaged limed plaster walls and ceiling through the majority of the house, There is separate toilet and bathroom, the shower is positioned over the bath. There is 2 bedrooms, 2 double fireplaces, Baltic pine flooring, large windows on both sides of house. Ornate ceiling in lounge room and timber door jambs and skirting boards. Little or no maintenance was done to the property and thus many features were left and unfortunately covered in dirt and soot.

The property has currently got the doors and windows boarded up to prevent entry to persons. This is to protect the house from individuals causing further damage to property.

Due to the dilapidated state of the structures on this allotment, the property is being sold for it’s market land value.
The land size is 33′ wide by 100′ deep (or 306.5sqm) and is relatively flat and level.

Tremendous potential with its convenient position in quiet street and moments to public transport (bus and train), Primary Schools, Medical Centres, Churches, Day Care/Kindergarten, Shops and Cafes, RSL and Pub, Sporting Reserve (football, tennis, cricket, golf) and playground.

Close to Yarra River and easy access to freeway, Citylink or West Gate Bridge and 8km from CBD.

Don’t miss your chance to transform this historical cottage into an impressive urban domain. Ideal for investor, developer or family looking for title with options for further improvement in a great location.

The selling price is based on independent valuation of property.
