Last Listing description (October 2025)

Set on 641sqm east-west parcel in one of the metro coast's most quietly connected pockets, 56 Illawarra Avenue offers the perfect blend of comfort, character, and scope to go in any direction you choose.

A C1958 classic that shows its age in all the best ways, solid double brick bones, high ceilings, picture windows, and a flexible family footprint create a home built to last.

Living zones stretch from a bay-windowed lounge that captures the afternoon sun, to a dedicated dining zone and an open-plan kitchen that keeps conversation at the centre.

Two generous bedrooms are ready to grow with you, serviced by a deco-style family bathroom that balances function with vintage appeal.

Outdoors, the possibilities only increase. A semi-enclosed veranda is primed for all-weather entertaining, a vast powered workshop is ready for projects big and small, and a separate rumpus room brims with versatility for your games retreat, creative studio, or even multi-generational living.

Established gardens provide plenty of room to play or potter and showcase the full scale of the allotment simultaneously. Whether it sparks the inspiration to extend, renovate, or completely reimagine (STCC), the options are endless.

Less than 2km from Brighton's sands, weekends write themselves, whether you swap the car for walking shoes or bikes and head to the esplanade, jump on the tram and head into the city, or work your way through Jetty Road's caf culture. Zoned for Brighton Primary and Secondary, close to Sacred Heart College and St Peter's Woodlands, with an easy 20-minute drive to the CBD, every school run and commute is streamlined.

Whether it's your first step, forever home, or the next addition to your portfolio, 56 Illawarra Avenue is ready when you are.
