More about the land block... Enormous Potential, Excellent Position
The scales are weighted evenly when it comes to decisions regarding the future of this c1910 double fronted weatherboard home.
As the site for a new home (STCA), the position of the 606 sq m (approx.) block is outstanding. Within walking distance of the city tram and bus and the Kew Recreation Centre and easy access of Kew Junction, the private schools precinct and the Eastern Freeway, its desirability is undeniable.
However to stand in front of the home and appreciate its symmetry of design and sense of heritage, is to be inspired by its restoration/renovation potential. The appealing facade of the central entry from a wide verandah, timber fretwork and substantial corrugated iron roof would lend itself to a modern colour palette and landscaped formal garden. Despite being bereft of most of its internal period features, the high ceilings and large rooms would set the scene for either a faithful restoration or a contemporary rebirth.
Extended at the rear and with ample space to renovate or further extend (STCA), the floorplan currently provides 3 large bedrooms, living room, kitchen /meals, utility space, bathroom and laundry.
