24 Montclair Avenue
Brighton

Superbly positioned in a leafy, blue-chip neighbourhood, close to Bay Street, elite schools and Golden Mile beaches this outstanding Brighton property inspires an exciting future with potential to renovate and refresh the classic 1980s four-bedroom double-brick family home or redevelop the substantial 743-square-metre site (STCA).

Solidly constructed of recyclable red clinker bricks, and rich in retro custom design appeal, the double-storey home’s generously proportioned layout offers formal and informal living and dining spaces and a light-filled central kitchen on the lower level with outlooks to the paved alfresco dining area and expansive lawned backyard. There is also a matching brick self-contained bungalow/studio, a built-in barbecue, and plenty of space for a swimming pool. All of the bedrooms are king-sized and have built-in robes, and there are bathrooms on both levels. The downstairs bedroom has fitted shelves and could ideally function as a home office, while there are three bedrooms on the upper level which also includes a powder room and a landing/retreat or study space with French door access to a full-length balcony overlooking the backyard.

Additional features include gas wall heaters, a large laundry with external access, under-stair storage, and an oversized double-garage, with retro arched doors and plenty of storage/workshop space, a rear access door, and there is off-street parking on the brick-paved driveway.

This tightly held, family-friendly, Brighton lifestyle location is just a five-minute walk to North Brighton Station, and Bay Street’s fabulous restaurants, shopping and cinema. It’s also a short walk to Firbank, Brighton Grammar, Star of The Sea, and Brighton Primary schools.
