AUCTION BROUGHT FORWARD - this Thursday 27th February 2025 at 1:30pm - please contact Agents for details.

This simple yet attractive historical Victorian bay villa, on 556sqm (more or less) freehold, is located on the seaward side of sought-after Palmerston Road and is much more spacious than it appears. Originally built in the early 1900s, within sight of the factory for a sugar worker employed at the iconic Chelsea Sugar Refinery, it housed one of Chelsea's oldest identities for over 60 years. The home preserves its architectural character and charm at the front, while the upgraded rear seamlessly blends modern living with comfort and convenience.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a traditional wide hallway featuring beautiful leadlight glass, polished wooden floors and high ceilings. The flexible floor plan accommodates four double bedrooms, an office or three bedrooms, and/or a lounge with a brick fireplace. A generous central bathroom on this level includes a double shower and bath. The private, roomy master suite is filled with natural light and has an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, striking sea views over Chelsea Bay, and a serene balcony to enjoy stunning sunsets.

On the lower level, a substantial laundry adds convenience. The large open-plan kitchen, dining and living space seamlessly extends outdoors through French doors to a sunny flat deck and lawn with water views. This setting is perfect for entertaining, making it ideal for families who enjoy hosting gatherings and for pets and children to play and run around. Additionally, an almost blank canvas is available for planting fruit trees and vegetables if you love gardening.

There is so much to love about this property, and there is still room for updates to add value over time. This is the first time it has been on the market in over 23 years, and the current owners have loved it. However, as their family has grown, it's time for the next family to experience its unique charm.

This family-friendly neighbourhood couldn't be more convenient, and you will find yourself within walking distance of cafés, restaurants, shops, ferry, bush walks and amenities. This property represents a vibrant lifestyle choice and an outstanding opportunity. Don't miss out on the chance to make it yours!
