17 Elmhurst Road, Blackburn, Vic 3130

Privately positioned amid a superb landscaped setting on an impressive parcel of land consisting of 1966 sq metres (approx.) or just under half an acre, this gracious 4 bedroom Edwardian-style homestead has been meticulously recreated using an array of authentic architectural materials throughout. Among its many highlights are a vast living area with soaring cathedral ceilings, a country-style kitchen with excellent storage, bench space and quality appliances, an adjoining dining area with garden aspects and a family room with a wood heater and french doors opening to a huge undercover timber deck. A wonderland for children, the manicured rear garden has a vegetable patch, chicken run, children's fort and sport practice area, while a private front garden is ideal as another outdoor 'room'. Warm timber accents of Oregon, Cedar and Tasmanian Oak feature throughout in floors, joinery and ceilings. In an central location close to a choice of state and independent schools, Blackburn or Laburnum stations, parks and Box Hill Central shopping precinct, this home is ideal for families looking for the space of an outer suburban block in a well-serviced inner eastern locale. Alternatively, it could be a rare opportunity for developers (STCA).
