10 Salter Street
Essendon, VIC 3040

Positioned within one of Essendon's most tightly held and strategically evolving pockets, this beautifully renovated 1917 weatherboard Edwardian offers a rare blend of period elegance, modern family living, and exceptional future potential. The property occupies a substantial allotment featuring a prized north-facing rear yard and outstanding right-of-way access along the full length of the western boundary, presenting a versatile opportunity for families, investors, land bankers, or developers.

Situated within the Housing Choice and Transport Zone – Schedule 2 (HCTZ2), the property highlights significant strategic importance and long-term redevelopment potential in this highly sought-after inner north location. Whether you choose to enjoy the renovated home as it stands, extend further into the expansive rear yard while maintaining ample backyard space, retain the existing residence and explore future development opportunities at the rear, or consider a full-scale redevelopment of the site (subject to council approval), the flexibility and land characteristics are exceptionally rare within this tightly held Essendon address.

The full-length western boundary right-of-way access is a major asset, providing excellent functionality for vehicle access, future garaging, workshop space, additional accommodation, or redevelopment possibilities. Combined with the highly desirable north-facing rear orientation, the site lends itself beautifully to a wide range of future outcomes while delivering immediate family enjoyment.

The home retains the charm of its Edwardian origins with stunning leadlight windows, soaring 3.1 metre ceilings, and generously proportioned rooms. A comprehensive renovation completed eight months ago has updated every major component including electrical, plumbing, insulation, kitchen, bathroom, and built-in cabinetry, allowing buyers to move in with nothing to do.

The flexible floorplan includes three spacious bedrooms plus a separate study, serviced by a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring premium stone benchtops and full stone splashbacks. The designer kitchen showcases quality Asko appliances and connects effortlessly to the open-plan living and dining zones overlooking the deep north-facing backyard, an ideal orientation for future extension, entertaining, or redevelopment aspirations.

Further versatility is provided by a separately accessed rear studio accommodation complete with its own bedroom and bathroom, ideal for extended family living, guest accommodation, home office use, or potential additional income opportunities.

Additional features include ducted gas heating, four split system units, gas hot water service, a 6.6kW solar system, fibre-to-the-premises NBN with four fibre points installed throughout the home, new Colourbond roofing, high-clearance roller rear access, double garage, workshop, and an insulated high-clearance pergola with integrated lighting.

Perfectly positioned close to Glenbervie Station, Napier Street Village, elite schooling, parklands, and major transport infrastructure, this is a unique opportunity to secure a landmark period home with immediate family appeal and significant long-term upside in one of Essendon's premier growth corridors.
