CHARMING CHARACTER ON A LEAFY STREET
THE FEATURES YOU WILL LOVE
Built circa 1915, this home is a beautiful example of the Federation style of architecture for which Claremont is renowned. Set on a generous 845sqm green title block, with a coveted north facing backyard, the single level home has been in the same family for over 40 years and presents an exciting opportunity to add significant value to the home through renovation. The home features stunning period features that are deserving of restoration – a gorgeous wrap-around veranda, turned timber posts, superb pressed tin wall cladding in the wide entrance hall and formal lounge, high skirtings and decorative cornicing, timber floorboards and soaring ceilings. Roll up your sleeves, choose your architect or designer and get busy planning the next phase of this stunning character home’s life. Opportunities to renovate and restore homes of such significance are becoming increasingly rare - please don’t delay your inspection.
