What's around 11 Blackett Crescent

One Remarkable Site. Three Ways to See It.

Are you looking for a substantial Meadowbank property where the next chapter is entirely yours? • Live in and bring a distinctive 1950s architectural home back to its best. • Start again and create your dream home on a generous 756 sqm freehold site. • Or explore the development potential of an exceptional piece of Meadowbank land. There is something rather special about this home. Designed in the 1950s and sitting proudly amongst mature gardens, its architecture still makes itself known - generous proportions, unexpected angles, high and light-filled hallways and large windows bringing the outside in. The expansive living room opens across almost its entire width to a wonderful covered deck, creating an elevated indoor-outdoor living space overlooking the established garden. The separate dining room and kitchen sit alongside, while three bedrooms and two bathrooms complete the main level. Downstairs adds another dimension altogether. A huge fourth bedroom with its own bathroom, office area and separate access flows directly to the courtyard and garden. Alongside it, extensive garaging, workshop and storage space still carries an intriguing piece of the property's history: the original owner was an engineer who worked from home, and his old Frederick Sheppard and Partners - Civil & Structural Consulting Engineers sign remains in place. Yes, she is a little faded around the edges. But this is a grand old dame with good bones, space and architectural character - entirely liveable today while you consider how to modernise her for another generation. Or think bigger. The large section offers the space to design a substantial new home with room for the things that increasingly disappear from city living - cars, boats, bikes, gardens, entertaining and perhaps even a pool. For developers, the proposition is different again: a beautifully positioned site in one of Meadowbanks tightly held residential streets, close to local shops and public transport, with the potential to investigate one or two high-value new homes. Three possibilities. One exceptional Meadowbank address. Restore her. Replace her. Or reimagine the site entirely. Drop by to my Open Home and decide which future you see. *Any redevelopment or subdivision potential is subject to council approval and purchasers completing their own due diligence.
