111 Brewer Road

Art Deco character runs deep in this 3-bedroom single-level home with its ornate ceilings, open fireplace, and hardwood floors, yet it's the deep 637 sq. metre (approx.) north-facing corner allotment that really sharpens the pencil for buyers in the know. Revive and renovate what's already a warm and worthy home, or recognise the dual-street access and significant footprint for what it is - a multi-site development opportunity of genuine merit (STCA). The classic weatherboard belle's wide entrance hall opens into a fireside formal lounge separate from a family and dining room beside a well-appointed kitchen, overlooking a deep private north-facing garden where an undercover terrace catches the afternoon and holds the light tightly. Three bedrooms share a central bathroom, with a second bathroom ready for its fair share of TLC to bring it back to life. For those with renovation in mind, the original detail is sympathetic to investment - Art Deco bones respond beautifully to a well-considered restoration, and the northern orientation rewards any push out towards the rear. For those thinking bigger, the corner profile and dual-street access to Daley Street present a compelling foundation for a multi-dwelling project (STCA), with the site's significant scale and shape doing much of the planning for you. Comforted with split-system air-conditioning, it sits midway between Bentleigh and Patterson stations, a short walk from Bentleigh Village, Hodgson Reserve, buses, Dendy Park, and the zoned Bentleigh West Primary and Brighton Secondary schools, delivering an address that serves families, renovators, and developers with equal generosity. Whatever the ambition, this one is ready to meet it.
