6 Beacon StreetParkdale

Possibly leafy Parkdale’s most unique and captivating hidden gem, this enchanting one-family home on a tremendous 1,056sqm (approx) is being offered for the first time in its 70-year history. With views to the Dandenongs and simply brimming with character & charm, this delightful residence and the glorious leadlight and one-of-a-kind ceramics that can be found throughout, were all cleverly crafted by its artist-owner back in the 1940s. Passed down to family members since then, this is a property that has watched the suburb evolve and grow around it. Now ready for its next chapter, among its standout features are an old-worldly lounge & dining room with fabulous feature fireplace, exposed timber beams and tranquil outlooks to the front and back. A charming eat-in kitchen and original bathroom are also offered and there are three large bedrooms, including the upstairs master where a sitting area with fireplace and far-reaching views to the Dandenongs are highlights. Outside, the sprawling back yard that leads to a fish pond and potter’s studio is like something out of a storybook - and somewhere that will keep the kids busy for hours! There is also a garage/workshop and carport parking. An offering steeped in local history, there are options to update the existing residence to meet today’s standards - or you may choose to explore possibilities (STCA). In the prized Parkdale & Mentone Girls’ secondary college zones, and close to a choice of primary schools, parklands, shops and transport, this really is an incredible opportunity to procure a significant slice of beautiful Parkdale and become the next custodians of a truly special property.
