Unrivalled in location and opportunity, this timeless Blackburn residence could be the buy of the year. Set on a private nature-inspired 763sqm (approx.) allotment in the very heart of Blackburn, a once in a lifetime opportunity presents itself to acquire a tightly held residence and reap the rewards that comes with it. In a lifestyle sense, that's the prospect of living within the Blackburn Creeks district and only a few short paces to Blackburn Station Village, Blackburn train station, the popular Gardiners Creek Trail, Furness Park and local bus services. Forest Hill Chase, Blackburn Lake, the attractive Laburnum shopping village, excellent schools (Laburnum Primary School and Blackburn High School among them) and the Eastern Freeway are also only moments away, accentuating the premium level of convenience on offer here.
However, the real benefits will come from what you can create with this excellent blank canvas of a home, which has enjoyed a rich past and is now positioned to embark on a rewarding future. That future may involve developing this prized piece of real estate withyour dream family home or restoring the original interior of the single-level four-bedroom home to its former glory with intelligent updates to the formal and communal living areas, separate kitchen area and central family bathroom, which already features a modern frameless walk-in shower.
Introducing modern flooring to flow beneath the wonderful high ceilings will inject contemporary flair, while a rear sunroom that connects with the large undercover area has all the ingredients necessary to become an indoor-outdoor entertaining centrepiece. Once in a lifetime opportunities are exactly that, so you'll be waiting a while before another opportunity such as this comes along.
