Fabulous Find on Francis - A Renovator's Dream


Step into history as you enter this remarkable home at 13 Francis Street. Built in the early 1900s as the original homestead, this property boasts a unique position bordering the serene Francis Reserve to the west.

Situated on a 556m² site, this villa has been the heartbeat of many lives, sheltering a cherished local family for decades; it's ready for its next chapter.

Be greeted by the grandeur of a stunning 3.45m stud height hallway that stretches the entire length of the home, drawing you in with charm and elegance. The layout features four generous bedrooms, thoughtfully supported by two separate bathrooms and two additional toilets—plenty of space for a modern lifestyle. The centrally located living room, with its intricate and original ornate ceiling, offers a beautiful focal point, while the single bay villa façade will capture the hearts of all who visit.

Positioned on the sought-after side of the street, this location ensures you’re moments from the best of West Lynn Village. Just 150 meters to Richmond Road, you'll find cafés like Big Sur and Malt, retail gems like Presentz and Dear Reader, and local favourites like Gypsy Tea Room, Lilian, and Honey Bones. Weekends will fill quickly with visits to the Grey Lynn Farmers Market or strolls through the nearby Grey Lynn Park, embedding you into the vibrant community from day one.

An extensive basement space offers future development opportunities, and with a single garage plus additional off-street parking, the practical elements are well covered. However, we suspect you’ll already be captivated by that magnificent 3.45m stud hallway.

Don't delay—the vendor has moved on, and this property will be sold! Join us at the open homes or call us to arrange your private viewing.
