Overview
Built in the 1960s as a showcase residence during Templestowe Lower’s transformation into one of Melbourne’s most sought-after family precincts, this exceptional single-level brick home presents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure authentic mid-century character on an expansive 834 square meter corner allotment.
Held by only two owners since its construction, the residence has been carefully preserved to retain its remarkable original details. Tasmanian oak flooring flows throughout the home, while the entrance foyer immediately impresses with distinctive crazy paving that continues seamlessly from the outdoor setting indoors. The bathroom and laundry feature original marble flooring, complemented by period-inspired detailing throughout.
The elegant lounge serves as a true centrepiece, framed by 1960s-style steel windows and an extraordinary stacked stone and slate fireplace, complete with an inlaid fossil slate feature. Even the original stacked stone letterbox remains, offering a charming introduction to the home’s enduring architectural appeal.
Beyond its undeniable character, the property's generous 834 square meter corner allotment and coveted DD08 zoning present exciting future possibilities. Whether you are considering renovating and extending, exploring redevelopment opportunities, or capitalizing on the area's preferred higher-density planning provisions (subject to council approval), this landholding offers exceptional flexibility for families, investors, and developers alike.
With its substantial landholding, prized corner position, desirable DD08 zoning, and beautifully maintained original features, this rare and refined property combines timeless mid-century appeal with outstanding future development potential, situated in one of Templestowe Lower's most tightly held locations.
