50 Pakenham Street, Blackburn, Vic 3130

Available for the first time ever since its construction, fastidiously built by the owner, is this handsome four bedroom 1950s brick property within the Box Hill High School Zone. A true family home, its blend of original features and updated living spaces offer a window of opportunity for buyers looking to embrace the lasting appeal of the period and its architecture. Occupy as is, or renovate upon its solid build and elegant floor-plan with a new, contemporary perspective... either way, the position or craftsmanship of this gem is certain to reward astute buyers.


Turn right from the entry hall, and the house opens into a sizeable living room, abundant in natural light and graced by an operational fireplace with mirror wall feature. This comfortable room flows into an open kitchen and dining area - aspects of a smart mid-life renovation - all looking out onto pleasant rear gardens. The kitchen in particular stands out with the distinctive breakfast counter and ample storage it offers.


A hallway extends left from the entry of the house, leading you past three of its four bedrooms. All feature built-in robes, with the second and third bedrooms including vanity tables. Walk past the original, airy family bathroom with its deep tub and attractive tiling and you'll discover the perfectly positioned sunroom, affording access to the back yard. Adjoining this sun-filled space is the home's fourth bedroom - an additional master-sized room, with built-in robes.


The home also features a good-sized laundry, with a second shower and separate toilet, in addition to ducted heating throughout, plenty of shelf and storage space, and ceiling fans in selected rooms. Out back, green thumbs will love the easily maintained yard and garden. There is also a versatile BBQ area, and a deep, brick garage with sufficient room for two cars as well as storage or workbench space.


This is a house of comfort, and true character. Beautifully located right alongside the green parkland belt of Blacks Walk and Kalang Park, it is nonetheless close to ample transport and amenities,
with Canterbury Rd shops and Blackburn's cafes close by and Box Hill's markets or Forest Hill Chase a short drive away. Both Laburnum and Box Hill Stations are readily accessible, and with the shortest of short walks to the highly sought after Laburnum Primary School, this abode has it all.


You'll want for nothing with this one. Don't let it pass you by. Proudly presented by Lindellas.
