8 Gould Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Presenting a rare opportunity in one of Brighton’s most exclusive cul de sacs, just moments to Dendy Street beach, this classic, single level brick 1920s residence is positioned on 596m2 (approx.) and will impress with its expansive, gated, front sun terrace and spacious, light filled modernist inspired interiors featuring soaring ceilings and an abundance of glazing designed to take advantage of its elevated, north facing orientation. Neighboured by some of Brighton’s most luxurious beachside properties, the three bedroom home is on the market for the first time (it was last sold in 1981) and inspires potential for a major renovation, rebuild or site redevelopment (STCA). Suitable for living in now, the well maintained property has a classic layout with an entry hall, a zoned front main bedroom with access to the terrace, while the formal lounge with open wood fire place also has glass sliding doors that open to the terrace. There are another two good sized bedrooms, one with original built in cabinetry, a bathroom with built in tub and separate shower room. A formal dining room, which includes a floor to ceiling book case, has glass walls and modernist windows that look out to the slate crazy paved patio and established back garden, while the adjacent well sized kitchen, includes a “1960s modern” multi level peninsula bench.  Additional features include a large laundry, central gas heating, an alarm system, a garden shed, external toilet and off street driveway parking for two vehicles. In a tranquil, low traffic pocket, the iconic sands of Dendy Street Beach are a three minute stroll away and it’s just moments to Church Street and Were Street Village shops and central to a choice of outstanding schools including Brighton Grammar, Firbank Grammar, St. Leonards and Haileybury colleges.
