An Earlwood Classic – Home of Motorcycle Legend’s Son Hits the Market

A rare gem from the 1960s, 21 Spark Street Earlwood has been listed for sale, marking the end of an era for a property steeped in history and Australian motorcycling heritage. This original home, owned by the late Cecil Glyn Weatherby, son of the legendary 1930s motorcyclist and dual war veteran, Cec Weatherby, presents a unique opportunity for buyers to own an enviable slice of this popular suburb.

Cec Weatherby achieved fame as the winner of multiple road races and motorbike events throughout Australia and overseas, as well as being a co-designer of the Mount Panorama circuit – a motor racing track located in Bathurst NSW. Cec also holds the rare achievement of enlisting in, and surviving both world wars, and was a decorated war hero.

Cecil Glyn Weatherby, a keen motorcycle enthusiast like his father, purchased the home in 1960. This is where he raised family and it is now on the market for the first time in over six decades.

Situated in a prime parkfront location overlooking the green expanse of the newly upgraded Earlwood Oval, the property boasts lovely park outlooks and a spacious 569sqm north-to-rear block of land with dual street frontage. It offers immense potential for a creative redesign, extension, or even a rebuild/development, subject of course to the appropriate approvals.

Interested parties are encouraged to seize this chance to capitalise on such a great real estate opportunity. Prospective buyers may even consider the possibility of subdividing the land and constructing a second home with its own street address from Louisa Street at the rear, pending council approval.
