Malvern East

Perfectly positioned within a stone’s throw of sought-after Malvern Primary School, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom Edwardian home offers a compelling opportunity for families, renovators and developers alike, combining period charm with exciting scope for improvement.

Rich in character, the home showcases high decorative ceilings, Baltic pine flooring, leadlight windows and original open fireplaces, providing a solid foundation to build upon. A functional kitchen/meals area—complete with original woodfire stove and walk-in pantry—connects to a light-filled living room, opening onto a private entertaining deck.

Recent updates enhance liveability, including split-system heating and cooling (with new units in all bedrooms), a newly insulated ceiling, and magnetite windows in the master for improved comfort and quiet. Additional features such as a study nook, EV charger, garage with new door, electric front gate, and a rendered front fence for added privacy and sound reduction offer practical everyday benefits. Outdoors, a veggie patch and new fencing add further appeal.

Set on a substantial, flat 711sqm (approx.) allotment with no heritage overlay and GRZ zoning, the property presents outstanding scope to renovate, extend or rebuild (STCA). Comfortable as is, it also offers clear potential for buyers to update and personalise, creating a home tailored to their needs over time.

Ideally located on the fringe of the Gascoigne Estate, within walking distance to transport including Malvern and Caulfield stations, local shops and Central Park, this is a great family home with strong bones and exceptional potential for the future.
