A Cheltenham villa on a level 911 m² section, a few steps from the beach, and in the same family since 1977. This is the first time it has been offered in forty-nine years.
Five bedrooms and three bathrooms across a house that has been added to carefully rather than rebuilt, so the character is still the point: the hall, the high studs, the verandah. Around it, a garden that has had five decades of attention, established, private, and level from the front gate to the back fence, which on this part of the peninsula is rarer than the villa.
Cheltenham Beach is a two-minute walk. The ferry is ten minutes on foot the other way. Vauxhall School is around the corner, and the section is large enough that the question of what to do with it, keep it, extend, or start again, is the buyer's to answer.
What you should know before you bid is in the documents below: the LIM, the title, and an independent building report the vendor commissioned so that every buyer is working from the same facts. A house of this age has a list. We would rather you read ours than discover your own.
