Open Home
An "as is, where is" opportunity in the heart of Richmond, this stylish yet character-filled home offers space, light, and the chance to unlock real value. Retaining its 1920s charm while enjoying a range of modern enhancements, the property welcomes you with an abundance of natural light, and inviting open-plan living.
Set on a freehold 612sqm section, the home sits securely behind full fencing - a safe and comfortable environment for children and pets. Excellent off-street parking is complemented by a standalone double garage, ensuring practicality is well covered.
The central hub of the home is the large open-plan lounge, flowing effortlessly to a sleek contemporary kitchen with modern appliances, ample storage and a defined dining zone. From here, step onto the west-facing covered wooden deck, an ideal extension of the interior living spaces and a perfect spot for year-round enjoyment.
Offering three double bedrooms, a small second living/TV room, a modern bathroom (one toilet), and a cleverly designed hideaway laundry, the approx. 120sqm home is both functional and welcoming. Character details such as leadlight windows speak to its era, while weatherboard cladding, an iron roof, and mostly wooden joinery echo its classic construction.
Close to the central city, The Palms, and surrounded by the ongoing revival of Richmond, this is a location where convenience and future value go hand in hand.
Sold without the benefit of vendor warranties or undertakings, purchasers are strongly advised to obtain their own independent advice on all matters before bidding.
Deal with the underlying issues, repair the repairs, and make this purchase work for you. More than just a Chrystal " this could be a genuine gem.
A project for 2026 and a smart addition to any forward-thinking property portfolio.
