An ageing beauty...

This just hit my inbox, and for those who appreciate the finer buildings that have seen better days, wouldn't you love to get your hands on this beauty and bring her back to her former glory?

Not a bad view or position either...

I just googled Braeside Hamilton to see what the history of this beauty is, and it seems this is already under contract (showing a sold price???) so maybe this second link is an older one?

Oh.. I know that house.

Back in the late 70s it was a house for mums and kids who had fled their homes. I went to primary school with a girl who lived there for a while. I can remember climbing endless stairs :) to get to her tiny flat on the top floor. There were a lot more rooms in it then and some of the rooms shared a bathroom. I don't know when it was refurbished to its current layout

Back then the "Hamilton Hill" elite were quite upset about it.
