Classic Character & Unlimited Potential on 669sqm

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Burwood, this timeless three-bedroom brick residence at 12 Elgar Road presents a rare opportunity for families, renovators, or developers to secure a substantial landholding of approximately 669sqm. Boasting an impressive 18.3m frontage, the property offers a versatile floor plan that balances vintage charm with functional living. The interior features a spacious light-filled lounge with a classic brick fireplace and split-system cooling, flowing into a formal dining room and a generous retro kitchen with a dedicated meals area. Three well-proportioned bedrooms (two with BIRs) are serviced by a central bathroom featuring a nostalgic blue pedestal basin and bathtub. A large rear sunroom provides a peaceful transition to the expansive backyard, which includes a level lawn, established greenery, and a long side driveway leading to a freestanding double garage (5.5m x 6.0m). Whether you choose to move in and enjoy the high ceilings and decorative cornices, undertake a modern renovation, or utilize the broad allotment to build a luxury dream home or multi-unit development (STCA), the potential here is truly limitless.
