83 Union St, Brighton East

Gracious Edwardian with Renovation or Redevelopment Potential

Rich in period character, elegance and grace, this beautiful c1925 Edwardian residence is enhanced by the significance of its location and prestige potential, encompassing a large corner allotment of 850sqm (approx). Zoned to Gardenvale Primary, near trendy shopping destinations, and desirably close to Landcox Park and Hawthorn Road trams, the setting inspires future scope for multiple town residences, a lavish architectural renovation and extension or a brand new home site with room for a pool (STCA).

At present, the engaging personality expresses itself through glorious traditional proportions, with a dedicated formal entrance and voluminous sitting and dining rooms. Harwood timber features, leadlight windows and high ceilings decorate the interiors, flowing into the sunroom/study, three bedrooms, a retro bathroom and a casual family/dining room with a well-appointed functional kitchen.

Extensive established gardens form the perfect canvas for alfresco dreams, including two vehicle access points and an oversized double garage with access to Elizabeth Street. Held by the same family for over 40 years, this gracious period beauty is ready and waiting for its new chapter, with a compelling location placing you within walking distance of Hurlingham Park, Bay Street shopping and dining, city-bound trains, and just moments from some of Melbourne’s best private schools.
