Overview

Original charm, a massive block and a nature reserve next door

Meander up the driveway then step inside, and you might just travel back a decade or five. 35 Vernon Street is the real deal - an original weatherboard home that hasn't forgotten where it came from. Tiled benchtops, timber panelling, patterned wallpaper and lace curtains tell the story of a home that was genuinely loved, and it shows in every room. There's a nostalgia here that's hard to manufacture and impossible to ignore - the kind that makes you think of great-grandmothers and apple pie and simpler Sunday afternoons. Beneath all that charm sits something very practical. Two bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are complemented by a kitchen and meals area for everyday living, plus a generous formal lounge and dining room - air-conditioned and ideal for lazy Sundays and family gatherings. Worth knowing: the formal dining was originally a third bedroom, with walls removed by the current owners to create the space it is today. For those who'd love to restore that third bedroom, the bones are absolutely there to do it. Out back, the practical bones are all there too - a single detached garage with workshop space (the weekend hobbyist in you just smiled), two additional sheds and a water tank. And then there's the block - a generous 859m² (approx.) beside the Vernon Street Reserve, offering genuine scope to live in, renovate, or build your dream home in a location this good (STCA). Zoned for Orchard Grove Primary and Forest Hill College, and close to Forest Hill Chase, Blackburn South Shopping Centre, buses and Nunawading Station - this is a rare chance to secure a piece of Blackburn South history, and decide what happens next.
