55 Austin StreetNewtown

Positioned in one of Newtown’s most tightly held and sought-after locations, this original Federation home presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial 1,117m² (approx.) allotment with glorious views across the Kardinia Park precinct and towards Highton. Set proudly behind its beautiful Federation facade, the home offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms across two levels, retaining a number of its original features and timeless charm. Step onto the generous front verandah and take in the elevated outlook or enjoy the morning sun amongst the established gardens. Inside, soaring ceilings and original fireplaces feature throughout three of the bedrooms and formal lounge, adding character and a sense of history that is increasingly difficult to find. The lower level provides a functional kitchen, formal dining and living spaces, while the home’s position towards the front of the substantial block opens the door to an exciting future. Whether you choose to renovate and extend the existing home, or simply land bank in one of Geelong’s most prestigious pockets (STCA), the possibilities are considerable. There is ample room for a pool, basketball court, extensive gardens and substantial garaging, all while enjoying the views and exceptional location. Newtown needs little introduction, renowned for its blue-chip appeal, excellent schools and easy access to the CBD, South Geelong and Geelong train stations, making Melbourne commuting a breeze. Opportunities to secure this combination of position, land, views and future potential are exceptionally rare. This is one you simply don’t want to miss. Inspection is a must.
