Surrey Hills 23A Surrey Avenue
Period Personality with Loads of Potential
Take a leisurely stroll around one of Surrey Hills’ prettiest locales, along peaceful tree-lined streets, past beautifully restored and renovated homes, but don’t blink or you could easily miss the secluded character-filled pocket of Surrey Avenue and the premier opportunity presented by this charming period home.
The inviting facade is a Victorian era delight. Envisage pulling up a wicker chair to enjoy a quiet summer evening on the return verandah. Original features gracing the front rooms include high ornate ceilings and cornices, traditional joinery and stained-glass detailing.
With changes made over time to the original floorplan, the home is geared to versatile living with the surprisingly spacious formal living room supplemented by a further family space, huge country-size kitchen with quality timber cabinetry and generous meals area. The real surprise is a vast, north facing alfresco room at the rear inviting all-weather entertaining on a grand scale.
This delightful home awaits a visionary new family to further its journey. Discover exciting potential for modernisation, restoration or extension and the scope to establish a substantial prestige residence in a premier location catering to the needs of a contemporary family lifestyle (STCA).
