Few development sites let you live comfortably while you plan. Approximately 896sqm on a corner with frontage to two streets, this holding offers scope for townhouse development subject to council approval, while the four bedroom home standing on it remains liveable, whether owner occupied or leased. Access from two sides gives a future project useful flexibility on siting and orientation.
The brick residence itself holds its position with quiet confidence, behind arched picture windows and gardens shaped by decades of care. Camellias, flowering natives, and a rockery border spill over a manicured lawn that frames the steps to the sheltered porch. Inside, a patterned tile entry leads through to an expansive formal lounge and dining zone that runs the full width of the front of the home, where an arched display nook with glass shelving lends a note of quiet character. Carpeted underfoot and wrapped in wide windows, the space fills with light through the day and comfortably holds a long dining table and full lounge settings, with built-in wine storage making hosting effortlessly easy.
To the rear, the home opens into a light filled kitchen, meals and family living area finished in practical tiles. The kitchen is appointed with cream cabinetry, a U shaped layout with a bench return to the meals area, twin pantries, a freestanding gas cooker, a dishwasher and a charming leadlight window above the sink. The adjoining family zone sits beneath a ceiling fan and opens straight out to the alfresco, so whoever is cooking stays part of the afternoon rather than stuck away from it.
Four carpeted bedrooms are each fitted with a ceiling fan, the main with a private ensuite, robe storage and a picture window to a courtyard garden. A third bedroom includes a built-in desk and robe, ideal as a study, while a family bathroom and a tiled laundry with external access serve the home well. Outdoors, the substantial gabled alfresco is a standout beneath exposed beams and a ceiling fan, opening to a brick paved courtyard and a wide lawn with an open outlook. A garden shed, rainwater tank and standalone double garage complete the picture.
Everyday convenience sits in every direction. Bulleen Plaza is a short walk with Coles, Chemist Warehouse and the European delis it is known for. Macedon Plaza and Bellevue Shopping Centre are within a quick drive. Belle Vue Primary School, St Clement of Rome School and Marcellin College serve local families. Easy access to Swanston Reserve Playground while Banksia Park, Koonung Creek Reserve and Heide Museum of Modern Art sit moments away. The 280 and 282 buses and the Eastern Freeway keep the city access simple.
