51 Laburnum Street, Blackburn, Vic 3130

This outstanding 1934 clinker brick and timber home is in the heart of Blackburn's Heritage area where you can listen to the bellbirds and find some of builder Algernon Elmore's coveted homes from the 1920s and '30s. Featuring Elmore's superb stained timber finishes and joinery created in Blackburn from local materials, this faultlessly presented single storey property merges into its garden's shrubs and trees on a conveniently proportioned block a short stroll from both Blackburn and Laburnum train stations and shops.

Overlooking a large northern back garden with a solar and gas heated salt chlorinated pool and spa, the 3 bedroom plus study/bedroom, 2 bathroom home is like new. It still features hand rolled champagne glass in its doors and windows, high ceilings, timber wainscoting in the principal rooms together with Elmore's remarkable craftsmanship in the architraves and the beamed ceiling of the delightfully bright and spacious living room with tall windows and an open fireplace. Double doors open to the timber panelled dining room (also with an open fireplace) and the adjoining renovated kitchen; it features Euro appliances and is part of the family meals area which opens to a sunny northern deck and the garden.

Other amenities include 3 toilets, an alarm, gas ducted heating, 3 air-conditioners, water tank and a drive through garage. Experience the pleasure of living in Blackburn's history.
