32 Durham Street, Stanmore

This classic C1890 Victorian terrace presents a sensational opportunity and unlimited possibilities for astute buyers seeking to update and add value.

Ideally located in a sought after tree-lined street, the house stands on a sunny 170sqm block with a north-west facing backyard and off-street parking with access from Warwick Lane.

Being offered to the market for the first time in decades, the home retains its original floor plan in the front section, while a substantial brick extension has been added at the rear.

Off the entry hallway are three bedrooms including a king-size main bedroom (with a bay window and air-conditioning) and a sitting room with a glass door opening to a side courtyard.

Adjacent to the sitting room is a big family-sized dining area and a modern open-plan kitchen with timber cabinetry, an electric stove and a wide north-facing window with a beautiful leafy outlook.

Behind the kitchen is a well-maintained bathroom with a bath and separate shower. A side door in the dining area opens to a path leading to the backyard featuring a parking space and gardens planted with lemon, olive and avocado trees.

Accessed from the backyard is a huge basement with a laundry, second bathroom and enormous storage areas.

Conveniently positioned, the property is close to city buses, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, University of Sydney, Stanmore train station and village shops.
