Steps from the sand in a prized beachside pocket, this mostly original double-fronted, freestanding, solid brick c1910 residence sits on a substantial 472sqm* allotment with a deep north-facing rear and full-width garage via ROW, offering immediate appeal with clear scope to move forward. Approved architectural plans by Ru. Design Studio outlines a luxurious new future, supported by a 10m* frontage and an impressive 47m* depth which affords freedom to follow through or shape something entirely your own. (STCA)

The existing floor plan showcases grand period character through a wide arched entry foyer, leadlight detail, high ceilings, and hardwood floors beneath the carpet, unfolding across a generous four-bedroom, two-bathroom layout. A study or sunroom provides flexibility for adaptation over time, while the open-plan dining to the rear supports a more contemporary arrangement alongside a large kitchen with stainless steel appliances. A rear living room extends via sliding glass to a paved courtyard garden with a mature lemon tree, complemented by an external laundry and storeroom for added utility.

The approved plans outline a single-level, four-bedroom, two-bathroom family home with a pool, pool house, and a guest studio above the double garage, offering a clear pathway toward a comprehensive luxury transformation. With split system heating and cooling, extensive garaging with workshop space, and the strength of the original solid brick build, it represents an extraordinary opportunity in a sought-after city-fringe setting, zoned for Albert Park College and within walking distance to the #12 tram, #96 light rail, Armstrong Street Village cafés, and Albert Park Lake’s recreation fields.
