Comments on 5 St Helens Road HAWTHORN EAST

This brick period home with a nice homely feel offers comfortable accommodation for now, but it will require some alterations to bring it to a contemporary standard at some stage. The large private north-facing rear is a plus, as are the glimpses of the city from the upstairs rooms. The low ceiling heights at the rear and upstairs are not ideal, nor is the narrow slightly tricky staircase. In addition the kitchen/meals/family space is small, but this could be addressed in time. The street does carry some cut-through traffic at peak times, yet the location is very convenient to transport, Tooronga village, Camberwell Junction, Anderson Park, and Bialik College and it is zoned for Auburn Sth Primary. This would appeal to a family with kids at nearby schools, which is willing to do some work in time.
