Both train station and Watton Street treats are within five-minute car trips, as are Wyndham Park Primary School and Werribee Secondary College.

The house, ripe for 21st-century transformation, retains ornate cornices, sash windows and many quirky fittings from the ’50s. making a great canvas for a trendy makeover.

A large lounge-dining room, through double doors off the entry hall, has plush velvet drapes, as does a sitting room where a wood heater set within a slate surround makes for a cosy winter retreat.

The extra-big kitchen-diner has a stack of cupboards and bench space, as well as a dishwasher and wall oven. This room, with its size and layout, will prove to be the real heart of the home.

The three large, fitted bedrooms include one with a classic ’50s dressing table/wardrobe arrangement, while the main bathroom has original wall sconces and an arched display niche above the peach-toned bathtub. A second shower is near the laundry.

This property, calculated to let your imagination roam free, has a four-car garage/workshop with concrete floor.
