17 Raphael Street

Abbotsford VIC 3067

This double block with a historic freestanding residence and adjacent land is a rare opportunity in the heart of Abbotsford that's bursting with potential and possibilities. A local landmark on a quiet city-edge street, this double-storey building with its evocative bluestone faade is an exemplar of early-Melbourne architecture that with adjoining land on a 210 sq. metre allotment (approx.) is ready for a remarkable 21st century renaissance. Currently configured with kitchen/meals area, 3 or 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this unique stand-alone home and the parcel next door present a range of exceptional options that will spark the imagination. Create a stunning new chapter in this outstanding property's history by either renovating and extending the existing residence, subdividing then building on a vacant block or preparing brilliant plans for a boutique development (STCA), all with potential city skyline views. The timeless bluestone profile of this extraordinary Abbotsford opening provides endless inspiration to be bold, creative and orchestrate a luxurious transformation in a coveted lifestyle pocket. Absolutely one of a kind with unsurpassed double-block scope close to cafs, restaurants, inner-city shopping, the Convent Arts precinct, Yarra River parks and trails, trams, train station and schools.
