Marrickville Sydney property: Dramatic photos reveal the state of a derelict house for sale

A neglected house from the early 1900s has been put on the market and could sell for about $1.8 million, according to real estate specialists.

The late estate in trendy Marrickville in western Sydney was announced Monday, revealing dilapidated interiors, neglected furniture and abandoned household items still inside.

The four bedroom house is located on a 366 m2 block in the much sought after suburb, recently in the news as the home of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

Photos reveal the house’s “derelict and uninhabitable” state – complete with forgotten champagne glasses on a piano in the living room, framed photographs on the walls, kitchen appliances and even an old rotary telephone.

Images show the neglected state of the house (pictured), a throwback to another era

The images of the house at 13 Wallace Street Marrickville are described as “full of existing character.”

They show the neglected state of the kitchen, living room and bathroom in a return to another era.

In the kitchen, the old-fashioned telephone sits next to gigantic glassware between broken cupboards, with washing-up liquid still on the sink.

“If there were to be an architecturally designed restoration on the property, I think it would generate a lot of interest,” said the real estate agent (photo, an aerial view)

Dean Vasil of Ray White in Earlwood told Daily Mail Australia he would like a buyer to do the job.

“It’s a shame it hasn’t been maintained, because it has an existing character and all,” said Mr. Vasil.

‘We would like to see the property fully restored to its original glory.

“If there was an architecturally designed restoration on the property, I think there would be a lot of interest,” the estate agent added.

The house is on the high side of the street and has two bathrooms, a dining room and large backyard, with a hill hoist.

Mr Vasil said it had a ‘development advantage’, board approval and said the local environmental plan allows for several uses for the property.

It can be transformed into a bed and breakfast, convenience stores, a guest house or multi-family housing.

“The character is quite unique, the construction is quite consistent with most homes in Marrickville,” he said.

“It’s a solid building and you have a great outdoor space, both in front and behind.”
