This is one of those classic, solid double brick & tile homes that so many of us fondly remember growing up in. Built in an era when homes were made to last, backyards were big enough for the kids to run wild, and the garage was where Dad spent his weekends changing the oil on the family Holden or Ford — depending on which camp you belonged to!
Tucked away in a quiet, leafy Belmont street, this 1960s residence captures much of that old-school character and charm, offering a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the simplicity of a traditional family home, while securing a substantial landholding with exciting possibilities for the future.
The home itself offers three bedrooms, one bathroom and many of its original features and attributes. Its solid construction provides an excellent foundation for those looking to move in and enjoy, renovate over time, or simply retain the property as a long-term investment.
Outside, the generous backyard offers plenty of options, currently offering side access to a garage, undercover outdoor area and established plants and fruit trees.
But it's what the future holds that makes this property particularly appealing. Set on 956sqm with R20 zoning, the property offers the potential to retain the existing home and build behind, or subdivide and create a separate rear lot ( subject to council approval )
Properties like 49 Somers Street represent more than just bricks and mortar. They capture the character and quality of homes built in a different era, combined with the increasingly valuable commodity of land.
**Live in it, renovate it, rent it out or unlock the development potential — the choice is yours.**
