9 Buckland Avenue Newtown

Lock in your position in one of Newtown’s most sought-after streets with this property ripe for renovation, extension or a luxury new residence (STCA) only a few minutes’ drive from the CBD.

The clinker brick home in a wide, tree-lined street is perfectly located on the doorstep of the river-end Pakington St café strip, Kardinia Park sports zone and Geelong’s medical precinct.

The deep block with sun-soaked rear garden offers abundant space to extend to suit your lifestyle, as well as potential to take in views of GMHBA Stadium and beyond from upstairs (STCA).

The interior retains well-maintained character features from its heyday including art-deco-style ceiling panels, dark timber window and door trims, together with a timber kitchen servery.

All the basics are there if the new owners opt to renovate – large lounge and dining room, spacious main bedroom overlooking the established front garden, attic bedroom that could double as a studio or work-from-home space, rear third bedroom, kitchen with loads of storage, central bathroom and separate toilet.

As a bonus, the well-maintained rear garden is home to apple and lemon trees loaded with fruit.

Other features include split-system unit and single-car garage.

The property is in the prime private school zone, close to The Geelong College, Sacred

Heart College and St Joseph’s College, along with highly regarded Chilwell and St Robert’s primary schools.

It’s also within easy reach of Barwon River walking and cycling trails, GMHBA Stadium, Kardinia Aquatic Centre, and Geelong and South Geelong railway stations.

Nearby Latrobe Terrace conveniently takes you to the highway to Melbourne or Surf Coast beaches too.
