This classic mid 1920s period family residence offers a rare opportunity to build a luxurious new residence (STCA) on a generous allotment in the prized Golden Mile precinct - among some of the area's most prestigious properties, close to Monomeath Avenue, Maling Road, Boroondara Park and the old outer circle trails plus easy access to several of Melbourne's finest schools including Camberwell Grammar and Canterbury Girls Secondary College plus a wide array of shopping options close to this highly sought-after residential area.
