Investors with an eye for renovation will likely be enticed by this property with its original period features. It has three bedrooms, a bathroom, lounge room, kitchen, family-meals area and a bungalow out the back. The house is in walking distance of Yarraville Gardens, Hanmer and Mappin reserves, Seddon railway station and Victoria University. The 650-square-metre block also has industrial zoning, allowing for commercial redevelopment opportunities, subject to council approval.
