Last Listing description (June 2025)

Positioned on one of Forestville's premier streets, 25 First Avenue offers a substantial 619m allotment with an impressive 18.29m frontage in a highly sought-after inner-city suburb that's set to boom.

While the existing three-bedroom, one-bathroom dwelling is in poor condition, those prepared to roll up their sleeves could refresh, update, or extend (STCC) the existing dwelling to create a comfortable family home.

Alternatively, this sizeable parcel presents an ideal foundation to build a contemporary residence tailored to your needs.

Whichever path you choose, the true attraction is undoubtedly the exceptional location.
