This grand Victorian residence is an unmissable opportunity for a buyer with vision.

Much loved by the same owner for decades, the home is still in possession of so many of the beloved decorative elements of its era, however in its original condition is in need of a refurbishment to bring it back to life once again. Ornate fretwork and the original front door hint at what the home could become again, while villa fans will rejoice in the kauri construction, high stud and board and batten ceilings throughout the ground level.

A large living room has a dual-sided fireplace with original detailing and connects to a covered sun porch. Also on this level is the kitchen, home office, dining and guest bathroom. With doors leading out from the living to a private garden, level and with plenty of room to play, it could be beautifully transformed at the hands of a landscaper.

The upper level hosts three double bedrooms and a bathroom with light filling this entire level thanks to an abundance of original sash windows.

There are very few remaining opportunities like this in Parnell, with the Gladstone Road shops, Rosie café, the Rose Gardens and waterfront just steps away.

In Double Grammar zone and walking distance to Parnell School, this is your chance to transform this faded beauty into the heritage-style home of your dreams. Including off-street parking, this home has great bones and will be a passion project for savvy buyers. Call the architect and builder and bring your vision to life.

For the first time on the market in over 55 yeears, this Deceased Estate sale is the Parnell do-up of the decade - don’t miss out on this one!
