57 Purnell Street, Altona | House sold 2025

A iconic Altona family home that's impressive in its design and inviting in its dimensions, this highly desirable corner address features an extensive grand frontage. Further distinguished by its ability to accommodate large families on prime allotment measuring some 700m2. The presence of dual dwellings (bungalow/granny flat/dual occupancy), each with its own street access, means outstanding flexibility defines this landmark property, offering some 45 squares of total building area.

The capacity to bring people together and the versatility to provide everyone with a zone of their own is illustrated by a series of elegant spaces, commencing with a substantial living room and seperate lounge/office. A dining domain that connects effortlessly to an alluring alfresco deck adds to the appeal, enhanced by the open-plan efficiency of a kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar/meals island, high quality cabinetry and a huge walk-in pantry.

Two downstairs bedrooms that share a stylish bathroom precede two additional bedrooms, a study and a family bathroom on the luxurious upstairs level while a pair of refined retreats include one accompanied by a balcony. The property's entirely independent, self-contained second dwelling illustrates the unique family focus and offers ideal independence for parents, kids or guests.

Secure garaging, charming expansive garden surroundings and a distinctive profile are complemented by a location that's consistently sought after due to its proximity to the beach, Kooringal Golf Club, Harrington Square's shops, Westona station trains and excellent local primary and secondary schools.
