Comments on 19 Finlayson Street MALVERN

19 Finlayson is very good proposition for a buyer who is looking to move into this area and is prepared to do some work. Position aside (which is good, close to Malvern Primary and Glenferrie Road shops yet could be affected by road noise at times being close to Dandenong Road), three aspects of this property which are very good are the land size, access for off-street car-parking (good width to the southern side) and the house itself (being a Victorian the facade is pretty and floor plan can be easily modified). Bones of the house seem in average order, and any further renovation work (i.e. remove rear lean-to and extend back and possibly up) would also need to factor in some serious remedial work to the front of the house. House has been cosmetically updated recently with a fresh coat of paint, so one needs to look beyond this a little. That said this is a good property, which offers excellent five-year flexibility - either renovate now or in time - and given the land size this could easily be a home that a family could grow with for 20 or more years.
