It's not often you actually have the opportunity to purchase a slice of history.
This character-filled family home was one of Boronia's earliest dwellings, and served as a holiday home for its owners who travelled to Boronia for a country escape from the 1940s and positioned on approximately 1,048sqm's.

Since that time it has been a well-loved family home, with its deep back lawn, terraced gardens and open-plan entertaining zones hosting events such as weddings, engagements and milestone birthday parties.

The picturesque soft green weatherboard boasts a deep front verandah with views across a spectacular front garden which is densely planted in old Norfolk Pine trees, rhododendrons and camellias which are significant to the area.

Crossing the threshold you step into a lovely gallery entry that takes you into a cozy formal lounge room with a working open fire place and soaring ceilings. Stepping into the newer part of the home - which was added around 30 years ago - you'll find a generous kitchen and family meals area as well as a rumpus room and other family amenities.

The home has three good-sized bedrooms which all have built-in wardrobes and plenty of extras such as ducted heating, a ceiling fan, air conditioning and a huge shed.

Currently presented largely in its original condition, the property is comfortable and very livable, but its period features and history offers the opportunity for one lucky family to restore and modernise it into an incredible family home.

This brilliant property comes on a huge 1048sqm block of land which cannot be sub-divided and boasts incredible views across Boronia towards the city. This offers the unique opportunity to extend or renovate the home to take advantage of the land size and views, knowing that the area will retain its rustic rural charm.

All of this comes in a brilliant location - just a ten-minute stroll into Boronia's bustling hub that includes shops, restaurants, public transport, sporting facilities and a range of quality state and private schools.

This property is certain to attract a huge amount of interest, so get in quick - inspect today!
