Two homes, one block: Surrey Hills property hits market at $2.3m

With two separate residences on the one Surrey Hills block, there is more to this home than meets the eye. Set on 916sq m on a leafy street, the primary four-bedroom period house at 15 Drewett St is framed by manicured hedging at the front, while a self-contained unit with a kitchen, bathroom and its own terrace sits behind the double carport, offering two distinct dwellings. The vendor says this feature is “exceptionally rare” for the Melbourne suburb and has provided their family with flexibility over seven years. “We fell in love with the idea of having a separate, self-contained cottage alongside the main home,” he says. “It allows for complete privacy while keeping multi-generational family close by … it’s perfect for giving elderly relatives or young adults their own independent cottage while keeping the family connected.” MORE: Mushroom Records to sell iconic $6.5m Melb base Could this farm on the city’s fringe become Melb’s next suburb?
