40 Brougham Street

A Hotham Hill classic full of charm & potential

In an enclave loved for its rich Victorian character and landmark residences, this semi-detached gem presents a stellar opportunity to harness inherent charm, tastefully revamp, and make a mark on prestigious Hotham Hill.

With the long-standing trees of its double-width streetscape the perfect introduction, a flair-filled façade with era-typical lacework preludes interior spaces brimming with charisma and potential. Enjoyable from the outset, a well-worked plan sees three substantial bedrooms and a tidy bathroom complement a large living/dining area and wrap-around kitchen with gas cooking, while a north-facing backyard offers ample room to extend into (STCA). A true North Melbourne classic primed for its next chapter, other highlights include a full-size laundry, gas heater, outdoor second WC, plentiful street parking, and old-world details in Baltic pine floors, fireplaces, sash windows, hallway fretwork, and cornices, architraves, and skirting boards ideal as foundational pieces in a future refresh.

Positioned to never require a car, it’s only footsteps to Peter McCallum and Royal Children’s, Melbourne, and Women’s Hospitals, the University of Melbourne, zoned University High, tranquil Royal Park, Arden Street’s oval and fitness centre, three railway stations, and trams accessing the Errol Street verve, Queen Victoria Market, and bustle of the CBD.
