Overview
Situated in the prestigious and tightly held locale of Newtown, this original Federation residence occupies a generous 1,117sqm allotment, offering expansive and elevated views over the Kardinia Park precinct extending to Highton. The home’s classic Federation facade and period charm are accentuated by features such as soaring ceilings and original fireplaces that enrich the character across several bedrooms and the formal lounge.
The property’s layout encompasses four bedrooms and two bathrooms distributed over two levels, complemented by functional living spaces including formal dining and a kitchen on the lower floor. The generous front verandah provides a serene vantage point to appreciate the elevated outlook and bask in the morning sun, while mature gardens frame the outdoor spaces with established greenery.
Beyond the existing home, the substantial land parcel presents exceptional potential whether for a sympathetic renovation and extension or as land banking in one of Geelong's most sought-after areas, subject to council approval (STCA). The allotment provides ample space to accommodate a pool, basketball court, extensive gardens, and substantial garaging, while preserving the remarkable views from this elevated position.
Newtown offers a prestigious lifestyle appeal with excellent schools and outstanding accessibility to the Geelong CBD, South Geelong, and train stations facilitating Melbourne commutes. This property represents a unique opportunity to combine an enviable address, significant land holding, and future development prospects within a respected community.
