Balaclava 50 Rosamond Street
Immense Potential for Dream Inner-City Home
Perfectly positioned just steps from shops, cafés and trains, and only 10 minutes from the beach, this character freestanding home is ready to reward your imagination. Primed for a renovation to revitalise, or a knockdown rebuild (STCA) and completely new life, the possibilities are exciting and endless.
Currently, the existing home features a formal living zone with heating and built-in shelving, plus a separate formal dining space alongside the central kitchen which includes gas cooktop and oven. Three good-sized bedrooms (one with built-in robe) are serviced by the bathroom complete with vanity, shower over bath and separate toilet, with a generous laundry with storage positioned alongside. The private rear yard features a paved area and gardens, plus rear access to the alleyway behind for added convenience.
Further increasing the value and appeal is a fantastic location, just around the corner from the vibrant Carlisle Street shopping precinct, trams and Balaclava train station, only 10 minutes from St Kilda beach, with easy access to Chapel Street, Albert Park and the CBD, and close to parkland and schools including St Kilda Primary and Elwood College.
