Last Listing description (September 2025)

On an enormous block of around 772sqm (approx.) sits this exceptional Californian Bungalow family home, built circa 1935 during the interwar period. Set over a single level, the home was last renovated in the mid-1980s with a sympathetic extension that created generous living spaces, perfect for family gatherings when children returned with their own growing families.

The entrance hall, a hallmark of Californian Bungalow architecture, leads to a formal lounge complete with bar, which could readily be converted into a spacious master bedroom. To the right of the hallway are two further bedrooms and a distinctive royal blue bathroom, featuring a blue spa bath and amber bullion glass to the doorway and window.

At the rear, an open plan kitchen and meals area reflects the bespoke design trends of its era and flows into a combined living, dining and study space.

Stepping out the back door, the scale of the property is immediately apparent. A large garage, storage area and tool shed sit toward the rear, while in the far corner a fully equipped gazebo captures the imagination. With a concrete slab, sink facilities and light fittings that speak of past decades, it is easy to picture lively celebrations here, well-sheltered from Melbourne's unpredictable weather.

The neighbourhood bounded by Gilbert Road, Bell Street, James Street and Bruce Street has long been linked with pioneers and forward thinkers. Tasman Street itself was laid out around 1888, when 32 acres of land were purchased by Thomas Barrett. The land was subdivided, sold off and then largely developed in the late 1920s and early 1930s, a period marked by returning soldiers, an influx of British immigrants and a younger generation embracing modern living. Many of the homes in this pocket were constructed within just a few years, giving the area its enduring period character.

3 Tasman Street has honoured the passage of time and now awaits its next chapter of transformation.
