Overview

Rich in Light & Character, Backing onto Bellbird Dell

Offers Close: Tuesday 1st December at 5:00pm From its borders along beautiful Bellbird Dell Reserve, this character home offers a once in a generation opening to one of Vermont's most tightly held parkland pockets. Set in the dual school zone for top performing Vermont Primary and Vermont Secondary (STSA), the property wraps around a sweeping bend with gorgeous cottage gardens and north-west facing solar panels to soak up free natural energy. Rich in light and character, the home spotlights relaxation across a sunken lounge with a gas log fireplace and a sunny back deck with parkland views. For the growing family, there's 4 bright bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a surprise solid brick basement with a versatile extra room suited as an office, retreat or 5th bedroom. The natural insulation on that lower level makes it perfectly cool, ideal in the summer, and perfect to store a precious wine collection or as a hobby studio for artists. A neat classic kitchen features updated s/s appliances including a Fisher & Paykel cooker with central wok burner, with central heating, wall mounted air con, plus an oversized double remote garage with internal entry and a lovely front verandah among the practical features. What's most unique about the setting is that the property is bounded on two sides by the revered bushland and birdlife of Bellbird Dell, which remains an oasis of natural beauty, seemingly hidden from street view. Walking tracks, wetlands, playgrounds and 28 bird species are just steps away for daily exploration, making this part of Vermont so treasured. As longstanding owners move to their next chapter, this is your chance to start your own story on the fringe of Bellbird Dell, still in easy reach of shops, transport and medical services including Vermont Health Care, the tram terminus outside Vermont South Shopping Centre and mall shopping at Eastland, Knox, The Glen and Forest Hill Chase.
