Studley Courtyard

The Robin Boyd Holford House I listed last week reminds me of this potential packed home at 34 Studley Road Ivanhoe that I viewed during its sales campaign last year. It was also a courtyard style home on a steeply sloping block. Although it needed a bit of work, it was in fairly original condition so you could see that it had great bones. Hopefully it sold to a new owner with a Modernist vision and deep pockets!

Entry to home via courtyard - much like Boyd's Holford House

Pinnaroo Pool

Flat roofed front elevation

In need of a bit of love and 'vision', this house at 9 Pinnaroo Court, Greensborough has an interesting floor plan. The house curves around the central pool, much like the way Peter McIntyre's 'Coil House' curves around two magnificent gum trees.

The house has a newly renovated kitchen which is pretty contemporary and the bathrooms have also been renovated. Price range is quoted at $450,000-500,000 - what a great entry level home with potential to renovate into something really retro & cool!

New Kitchen - Nice Profile Light

Pool needs a renovation but the courtyard has serious potential!
