Retaining the 1950s character embellishment of hardwood floors, high ceilings, ornate cornices and timber sash windows, recent renovations have brought this weatherboard house right up to date. At the front, the L-shaped lounge and dining room is instantly welcoming with its open fireplace, while the near-new kitchen with gloss cabinetry features lime-washed hardwood floors, a stainless steel Bosch dishwasher and 900mm Glem cooker, overlooking the big north-facing backyard. The 3 generous bedrooms share a renovated bathroom with an elegant twin-basin vanity, feature tiling and leadlight windows- Bedroom 3 accesses the deck. The large north-facing backyard is a lucrative bonus. Currently home to a partially-covered alfresco deck, a garage and shed, there's potential for landscaping, extension or development (STCA). During the renovations, the house was re-wired and re-plumbed with all new guttering and highlights include: ducted heating, reverse cycle split system, ceiling fan and fridge plumbing. A bus stops next door and this cherished character home is within walking distance of Laburnum Primary School, Kalang Park and Black's Walk. Zoned for Box Hill High School, further nearby amenities include Blackburn South Shops and Laburnum station.
