The sun-drenched open-plan kitchen and meals area flows seamlessly onto an elevated deck, providing an ideal space for entertaining and relaxation.
This property is comfortable to occupy in its current condition, with scope for minor updates to settle in while plans for future enhancements take shape. A standout feature is its corner position, which offers exceptional design flexibility and the potential for a new dwelling fronting either Hopetoun Avenue or View Street, further enhancing the value and redevelopment options available (STCA).
Ideally located within walking distance of Maling Road's renowned cafes and boutiques, Canterbury Station, tram services, and some of Melbourne's finest schools, this rare Golden Mile offering combines immediate livability with outstanding redevelopment and multi-dwelling potential in a prestigious blue-chip location.
