54 Union Street Armadale - James Home Ratings

This home is spot on.

It’s spot on in terms of the PPP’s – price, property and position. And for what it is, it’s greater than the sum of those three combined.

Let’s look at Position first:

• You’re a minute to the station.
• A minute to Glenferrie Road shops.
• A minute to the High Street fashion precinct and restaurants.
• You’re walking distance to some of Melbourne’s leading schools, or you’re on the Glenferrie Road and High Street spine – MLC, Lauriston, Scotch, and the Malvern options.
• Elite access north and south, east and west.
• This is blue-chip Armadale, in one of its most cherished streets.

Now the Property itself:

• A freestanding, solid brick Edwardian – that matters.
• From the tuck-pointed façade and elegant front verandah, to the high ornate ceilings, decorative fireplaces, leadlight windows, and original timber detailing, this home holds its character with pride.
• Step back from the street and it presents as a very large, proper family home –
• Five bedrooms (if you want them), two living zones, a study, and plenty of gracious formal spaces that genuinely breathe.
• You’ve got off-street parking, a bluestone driveway, automatic gates, and strong street appeal behind a secure fence.
• Inside, it’s already working. The central kitchen is generous, central, and connects to dining and outdoor entertaining.
• The main bedroom suite upstairs delivers a genuine private retreat – or you could configure it downstairs.

And on the subject of renovation – the balance of practicality and period charm is already strong – so if you want to improve or expand, there’s room out the back.

• Whilst at the back, look at the size of that yard and the existing double-storey footprint – upstairs and downstairs. That structure could simplify the process at council if you choose to add or reconfigure within its footprint.

Price – All of that, at a circle $4 million –

When you consider land size, house size, location, period quality, move-in readiness, and long-term flexibility – this is one of the better options going around in Armadale right now.
