Dual Street Access, Twice The Possibilities

A charming weatherboard residence where period personality meets promising potential on a practical 478sqm approx. allotment in one of West Footscray's most connected and convenient locations. The character is classic, the setting is superb and the scope for transformation - or redevelopment, STCA - is genuinely exciting.

The exceptional advantage of dual street access via both Soudan Road and Dongola Road creates outstanding flexibility for the property's future, whether pursuing renovation, replacement or potential subdivision opportunities, STCA. This valuable configuration significantly enhances the block's development appeal while providing practical benefits today through rear street access to the single garage, additional carport and space for an additional vehicle.

The home's traditional appeal showcases classic Art Deco features including high ceilings characteristic of its 1950s origins, while separately zoned living and dining rooms offer generous proportions enhanced by arched doorways and original details that create an authentic period atmosphere.

Three bedrooms sharing the central bathroom provide comfortable accommodation in a floor-plan that's ready for your renovation vision, while the kitchen and laundry await updating to match your modern preferences.

Location defines the lifestyle appeal of this address where Shorten Reserve's green expanses are literally just 100m approx. away, while Footscray West Primary School is an easy 310m approx. walk. The new Footscray Hospital, West Footscray station, Central West Shopping Centre and the vibrant café culture of West Footscray's blossoming precinct are all within comfortable reach.

An outstanding opportunity to create something special in a neighbourhood where character homes and community spirit combine with exceptional urban amenity.
