"HAZELBROOK" - Rear Access via Allans Avenue

A dress circle location, 923sqm of level land and vast untapped potential is a combination so rare it's unlikely to be repeated in this premium Inner West pocket.

The interiors are impressive, presenting soaring pressed metal ceilings, six ornate fireplaces, bay windows, leadlight Art Nouveau glass windows and decorative chandeliers.


There are seven large-scale bedrooms, including a master suite with ensuite, walk-in robe and balcony, two additional bathrooms, multiple living spaces, an attic space and a spacious country-style eat-in kitchen. The size of the block is where the true value of this property lies, it is spread over multiple lots with two street frontages and access via Allan's Ave. There are rolling park-like grounds, a swimming pool, cabana, large storage shed or workshop and parking for five vehicles.

Suited to either a buyer wishing for a forever family home, steeped in history, or a developer seeking a rare 923m2 block (R1 zoning) with great development possibilities, this is a truly unique property offering that will bring enormous value in the future.
