So many people move to the country or coast in search of that elusive tree change, where once established, they find themselves facing an arduous daily commute and lack of amenities they took for granted in the city, and regret their move.
This home on 1700 sq m approx. adjacent to Kalang Park, part of the Blackburn Creeklands Reserve offers the alternative of a tree change in suburbia. The walking trail next door meandering alongside the creek takes in the bush, birdlife and beautiful homes barely visible amongst the trees. The home, built in 1956, and in mostly original condition has been extremely well maintained and could be lived in comfortably as it is. With the living and dining areas opening to an inviting deck among the trees, 3 generous bedrooms, modernised bathroom and time capsule kitchen complete with breakfast nook, the floor plan would easily lend itself to innovative extension and renovation (STCA).
The rear garden is a child's delight comprising pathways and secret spots, plus a paved clearing with BBQ and a bungalow used as the family's holiday shack before the home was built. Parkland across the road gives the impression of continuing bush, certainly not a suburban street. An ideal family home in an exceptional setting near shops and station, or a new home or development site (STCA). Enjoy your tree change!
