12-14 Montana Parade, Croydon VIC 3136
" Ansford " Circa 1949
Strategically placed on the high side of a charming country style lane and built in 1949 on a commanding 1,589 sq.m. block of land, this weatherboard classic is now available for those who are interested in living in a quality location. This is the first time in over 30 years that this home has been offered for sale, and it offers plenty of possibilities and advancements for a prospective buyer. Features of this uniquely designed home include 3 generous bedrooms, country style kitchen/meals area, main bathroom and a magnificent formal lounge dining room complete with woodfire heating, exposed beams, high ceilings and a classic bay window with a feature Christmas window. Outside, the turnaround driveway leads to the garage and extra parking and makes entry and exits very easy. There is the clever use of Castlemaine rock for the steps and patio leading to the front reception area along with plenty of space for those balmy evenings sipping a glass of wine whilst admiring the filtered views towards the Dandenongs. Being so close to Croydon Main Street shops, station and schools, this home also has direct access to the Eastern Freeway and Eastland shopping complex. There is some work to be done to bring it back to its former glory along with the possibility of adding a second floor to fully recapture the mountain views that were such a highlight back in 1949. This is a one of a kind home in one of Croydon’s most revered locations and should be on everyone’s list of must see properties.
