40 Ventry Street, Alexandra GRACIOUS AND GRAND-A RARE OPPORTUNITY

This timeless gem has been lovingly cared for by only two families in over a century. The original construction was grand in its day and has solid construction walls (both exterior and some interior) providing enduring quality. It was extensively renovated in the1990's with architecturally designed alterations, double glazing, floor coverings, paper, paint and a replacement roof, yet retaining its ornate ceilings, and cornices, high stud, panel doors and character of a bygone era. The 2nd bathroom refit has not been completed but was an original bathroom. There is still plenty of opportunities to enhance and add value while honoring its classic charm.

With spacious bedrooms and living areas, this home offers versatile options for extended family living, guest accommodation, or even an Airbnb. The home is heated with two heat pumps and a low emission wood burner.

Set on a flat and expansive 2112m2 section, the property’s appeal includes a large, high clearance, double garage (built in 2006) perfect for storing the boat, car, and bikes, lean-to and garden shed for additional storage, and a standalone workshop/craft room. The beautifully landscaped, productive and organically managed grounds are adorned with mature trees, orchard trees, scrubs, flowers and a big vegetable garden, irrigated by an automatic system.

The crown jewel is the majestic walnut tree in the front yard, an idyllic spot for summer relaxation in its cool and generous shade.

With its convenient central location, virtually in the middle of town and only one block from Centennial Avenue, this property offers a rare combination of space, character, charm and potential. Whether you’re dreaming of a lovely family home, investment opportunity, or development potential, this unique property awaits your vision.

Don’t miss your chance to secure one of the last sites of this size in such a prime location.
