Morning birdsong, a coffee in the sunroom, and a backyard brimming with possibility. Set on approximately 870m² in a peaceful Montrose pocket at the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges, this charming brick cottage offers the kind of opportunity that gets the imagination working. Comfortable as it stands, yet rich with potential to renovate and reap the rewards, it's a home that invites you to add your own story over time.
Privately positioned amid leafy surrounds, the home has a warmth that feels immediately familiar. Timber floorboards stretch through the L-shaped living and dining area, ready to be polished to their former glory, while large windows invite natural light to wander through the space throughout the day.
At the heart of the home, an updated kitchen keeps things practical with laminate benchtops and stainless steel cooking appliances including a gas cooktop and electric oven. It's perfectly functional for now, giving you the freedom to move in, settle down and plan future updates at your own pace.
Two robed bedrooms are tucked quietly along a hallway and serviced by a central bathroom, while at the rear, a versatile sunroom offers valuable extra space. Home office, second living area, potential third bedroom, hobby room, entertaining zone or perhaps all of the above depending on the season of life you're in.
Outside, the possibilities continue. A separate bungalow sits amongst the gardens, ideal as a work-from-home studio, guest accommodation/third bedroom, creative retreat or gym. Beyond, the backyard unfolds as a blank canvas framed by tree ferns, camellias and a leafy hills backdrop visible through the canopy. There's plenty of room for veggie gardens, a firepit, play equipment or the dream entertaining space you've been collecting inspiration for.
Within walking distance of Montrose Village, schools, parks and walking trails, this is a property that combines everyday convenience with a genuine sense of peace. Move in now, improve over time, and enjoy watching both the garden and your investment flourish.
