Updated Victorian in Hawthorn

{yoogallery src=[images/stories/july29groverd]}

35 Grove Road, Hawthorn, Victoria, 3122

A fine double-fronted Victorian home, which has been updated well to suit modern living. Key pluses - rear northern orientation and secure/direct car access, functional floor plan, and the façade is a classic one (yet could be further improved with some colour changes and restoration work). Some may find rear living area a little small, and location of laundry to first floor a little odd (yet could be relocated to existing formal dining room area). First-floor bedrooms are good size and enjoy north light. Given recent strong sales in this area, this should attract good completion - would well suit a young family / couple very well. James Buyer Advocates rates the property 725 out of 1,000, which is in the Well Above Average category. It is being marketed by Jellis Craig agents Peter Vigano and Katrina Mckenna and goes to auction on Saturday, July 30 at noon.
