For sale by set date, best offers in by Saturday, 18th April, 12pm unless sold prior. Filled with original details and the patina of time, this solid brick three-bedroom, two-bathroom Californian Bungalow on an expansive 730m² (approx.) allotment with a generous frontage of approximately 18.25 metres is structurally sound and brimming with potential. Perfectly suited to renovation, extension or redevelopment (STCA), it invites an exciting next chapter while retaining its ornate charm. Behind a wide and charming double-fronted façade, high decorative ceilings/cornices, picture rails and an ornate hallway create character appeal. Sizeable bedrooms, one of which can be utilised as a bright lounge if preferred, flow to a formal dining/sitting room with an open fireplace and the spacious kitchen/meals domain. Highlighted by terrazzo-style floor tiles, it is equipped with freestanding gas cooking appliances, ample cabinetry and a double sink. Outdoors, a large undercover area sets the scene for relaxed entertaining as it overlooks established garden beds. There is also a utility shed, lock-up double garage and generous storage/workshop space. Further highlights include heating/cooling, neat bathrooms and gated driveway parking. Within a prized tree-lined street less than 7.5km from the cosmopolitan CBD, it enjoys easy access to the vibrant Station Street precinct, where daily hotspots create a true village atmosphere. Fairfield Station, the lush Yarra River, elite schools (zoned for Northcote High) and the Alphington Farmers Market are all close at hand.
