Victorian Georgian Style Cottage, Circa 1897, on a 384sqm Corner Block.
This property screams opportunity!
If you have ever dreamt of restoring and adapting a heritage building into a contemporary home, this is for you! This Victorian Georgian style worker’s cottage is 1 of 4 identical, side by side houses, in the Lapsley Road Heritage Area, built around 1897. The other 3 have already been renovated, so this is your last opportunity to make your personal contribution to this valuable heritage streetscape.
This is a project that requires a buyer with the vision to see what a fabulous home they can turn this cottage into, whilst retaining the romantic charm of a 124 year old building of exceptional historical significance.
The integrity and authenticity of the house have been maintained, and it is in basically original condition, requiring extensive renovations.
The block enjoys a preferred south facing, facilitating additions that can fully benefit from passive solar design principles.
The property enjoys an excellent location, being located just 500m to the Claremont Railway Station and all of the attractions of the Claremont town centre. Additionally, it is just 200m to the extensive parkland surrounding Lake Claremont, a Conservation Category Wetland. There are many recreational opportunities within very close proximity, including the Claremont Aquatic Centre, Claremont Tennis Club, 9 hole golf course, 2 gymnasiums, and numerous walking trails around Lake Claremont, where one can commune with nature and walk off the stresses of the day, perhaps with man’s best friend by one’s side.
The property is included on the Municipal Inventory of the Town of Claremont, and is classified Management Category B. Act now, and you could be the custodian of an important example of Claremont’s history.
For those who are eagerly anticipating the return of air travel, The Metronet Claremont Station Project, which is nearing completion, will increase service frequency and allow direct access to the future Airport Line.
This is an increasingly RARE opportunity, so call me, GREG VOUDOURIS, on 0438072531, to arrange a private viewing.
