54 Illawarra Ave, Hove is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 3 parking spaces and was built in 1970. The property has a land size of 925m2 and floor size of 197m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in November 2021.
With its ultra-flexible 4-bedroom footprint, bill-busting solar system, room for your caravan, boat and big toys, and a workshop/garage like no other at the rear of a very generous allotment, if you have hobbies, a home business or you're simply on a mission to grow into - not out of - a family home, the search ends at 54 Illawarra Avenue.
Only on a uniquely shaped plot of some 929sqm can a substantial family home be set back from the street and still leave so much room for not only a big, lawned backyard, but also a double carport and fully-lined and alarmed workshop/garage/studio set over two levels.
Extended in serval directions, this is everything but the solid brick 1970s home it was when only its second set of owners took hold in 2005 of this move-in ready home with a north-facing rear and a prized zoned pass to Brighton Secondary School.
You can thank them imparting just about everything you see, including the rear family room addition headlined by its striking open-plan kitchen with stone benchtops, Smeg appliances and loads of storage.
Step out to the rear paved patio, perfect for balmy after-dinner drinks while the kids play cricket. For anyone tinkering in that garage - boasting a toilet, combustion fireplace and two mezzanines - simply hand them a cooling beverage and have a chat at the servery/bar window.
Set on a quiet street just a 1.5km crow-fly from Brighton's sands, you can leave the car keys where they are, dust off the push bikes instead, and pedal your way along our beautiful metro coast. Mission accomplished.
