In an avenue famed for its elevated leafy blocks, this beautiful weatherboard house enjoys exceptional views, character features and laneway access on a generous allotment of 692m2 (approx.). Polished timber floors (Hardwood and Baltic Pine), picture rails, sash windows and high ceilings with ornate cornices unify the single-storey home, boasting 2 bedrooms, a separate study and a bright bathroom with a bath and separate toilet. The master bedroom with built-in robes has sweeping views, as does an elegant lounge room. The large, mostly original kitchen incorporates a dining area and has a gas cooker and gleaming hardwood benchtops, with views over the back garden boasting a selection of fruit trees and indigenous plants and shrubs. A study adjoins the laundry and a backyard bungalow has great transformation potential. With sole vehicle access to adjacent laneway, double gates allow for off street parking.
Impeccably presented, this elevated character abode presents many options for buyers seeking a sought-after Blackburn position, including renovation and extension (STCA) for young couples and families, while others should investigate redevelopment, potentially into a new luxury house or dual-occupancy townhouse site (STCA). Further inclusions: gas heating, reverse cycle split system, ceiling fans, a bungalow and off-street parking. Enjoy almost immediate access to Laburnum railway station, shopping village and primary school, close to Box Hill High School, Black's Walk and Kalang Park.
