42 Gubberley Street

Positioned on a quiet no-through road, this 1,265sqm corner block with approximately 40 metres of street frontage offers something that is virtually unheard of in Kenmore - mostly flat, usable land. Not one of those goat-track style sites where half the block disappears down a hill, but real space you can actually enjoy. It is just as perfect for a backyard cricket pitch as it is for exploring the possibility of subdividing and building a second - perhaps even a third - dwelling (consult your favourite town planner for advice on what is possible). In short, it delivers lifestyle and opportunity in equal measure. Just as compelling as the land is the home itself - a beautifully maintained single-level Griffin & Knowlman residence plus large inground pool, lovingly held by the same family since 1971. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living areas, it captures everything buyers appreciate about this iconic Kenmore architecture: striking brick and tile construction, high ceilings, exposed brick feature walls, a fireplace and an abundance of glass through large timber sliding doors and windows. Updated where it counts while retaining its original character, the home is just as appealing for those who want to move straight in as it is for buyers who see the opportunity to renovate and add further value over time. Kenmore Plaza, Kenmore South State School and public transport options are all just minutes away, placing everyday convenience right at your doorstep. The home's north-facing orientation fills the living spaces with natural light, while trees and a nature walk across the road reinforce the sense of greenery and space that makes this pocket of Kenmore so tightly held. Develop, renovate, enjoy or do all 3 at once (we think there is a clear opportunity to subdivide while keeping the existing house). This is a property that will undoubtedly have very broad appeal and strong demand. Guaranteed to sell at auction if not before. Be very, very quick to view!
