178 New Street

Brighton VIC 3186

Positioned right on the cusp of vibrant Church Street, where boutique shopping, gourmet supplies and great dining temptations await, this unique home delivers an enchanting opportunity to create something very special. Situated within the GRZ2 zone allowing for greater development options, the three-bedroom home itself should not be overlooked. Set back behind a leafy picket-fenced garden, the front of the property harks back to the Victorian era showcasing the traditional return verandah with intricate lacework outside along with soaring decorative ceilings through the charming period interiors. At the rear, a solid slate-floored extension was added at a later date, this space evoking an almost ecclesiastical ambience with its stained glass arched window and steeply pitched timber ceiling crowning the living area with a roaring open fireplace. A central kitchen and dining room/reception area with loft storage are also offered, while a bathroom, laundry and wide laneway access to the rear carport complete the existing accommodation.While it may be tempting to clear the site for a luxury new home or boutique apartments that will enjoy the incredible location (STCA), there is also the chance to reinvigorate the really inspiring interiors to craft a home with perhaps a varied past but certainly a sensational future.Literally moments to bus stops & the station, an easy walk to Brighton & Firbank grammar schools, this stunning position is also within a stroll of beautiful Brighton beach.
