Last Listing description (November 2023)

Central Highett potential doesn't get bigger, higher or more original than this! One of the area's gracious originals in approx 660sqm GRZ1 grounds, this rare Californian Bungalow is arguably one of the last (and greatest) renovation opportunities in the central retail and rail precinct.

A superior home of the time, this rare beauty retains all the grander proportions of the day and most of its great vintage detail; including a curvaceous bow-bay window, a tiled and timber-mantled fireplace, and a wide fretworked hall. Extended beyond its original design with a huge eat-in kitchen and well-placed bathroom, this three bedroom home is now perfect for a simple further extension out past a vintage garage and carport into the lush rear garden.


Alternatively, extend the value in this well-positioned site and capitalise on the multi-home, multi-level potential of the central Highett GRZ1 Zone. Perfect to meet demand for prestige living in this commuter-life, latte-lifestyle position, this highset site is less than 400m from Highett's hospitality strip and station, with added potential for views ..possibly as far as the city,

Set against the backdrop of the precinct's existing and forthcoming luxury multi-level, multi-dwelling development, this original beauty is potentially ready to give way to the future ...unless its potential to become one of the areas landmark period homes gets in the way first!
