Grand Toxteth Estate Victorian residence with an even grander future

A golden opportunity for inspired buyers who value character, size and premium positioning, this supremely spacious Victorian-era property will delight with its wealth of space and potential. 'Glenview' c1892 is quietly set back from the road on an elevated 331sqm landholding and comes with well-preserved interiors, extra-large proportions and an ultra-private garden haven, as well as lots of future scope for a renovation or redesign to add significant value.

Step inside and you'll find timeless original features including soaring ornate ceilings, restored marble fireplaces, polished kauri and blackbutt floors, along with classic period tiling. Recent updates bring modern comfort, with a custom-designed kitchen fitted with premium Miele appliances, a stylish bathroom with underfloor heating and many storage solutions throughout. A versatile upstairs retreat captures pleasant 'chimney top' views, providing additional lifestyle flexibility.

Entertainers will love the spacious and sundrenched rear garden featuring beautifully landscaped areas, private level lawns and paved dining patios, as well as the all-important double carport accessed from the rear lane.

This exclusively addressed residence is enhanced by its vibrant location in the highly sought-after Toxteth Estate that's within walking distance to the attractions of Glebe Point Road, Jubilee Park, Tramsheds, charming Annandale Village and the newly developed Fish Markets.
