Occupying an impressive 1,040 sqm (approx.) in one of Box Hill's most sought-after pockets, this characterful three-bedroom home with retreat offers a rare opportunity to enter a tightly held
market. Whether you choose to embrace its original charm, renovate and put your personal stamp on it, or capitalise on the land and build your dream home in a prime location, the options are exceptional.
Presenting with undeniable street appeal, the rendered and brick facade is framed by established gardens, climbing greenery, and a driveway leading to a covered front porch. A classic first impression that hints at the character within.
Step inside to discover generously proportioned rooms brimming with period detail. The formal living room is a standout space, featuring original hardwood timber floors, a beautiful bay window, intricate cornicing, timber dado rails, and a chandelier. The dining room continues this character, anchored by an ornate timber fireplace surrounded with decorative green ceramic tiles and leadlight highlights above, making it a genuine showpiece for entertaining.
The kitchen features white cabinetry with timber trims, a tiled splashback, freestanding oven and gas cooktop and dishwasher. A generous mudroom provides additional storage and utility space, while the sunroom-style meals area with its timber-panelled walls, exposed beam ceiling, and wide outlook to the rear garden offers a relaxed everyday living zone.
The bedrooms include built-in robes and retain the home's signature hardwood floors, timber-framed windows, and decorative wall detailing. A retreat provides flexible space that could serve as a home office or fourth bedroom. The main bathroom features a freestanding claw-foot bathtub, vanity, and chrome tapware set within timber-lined walls. A separate powder room provides added day-to-day convenience. Ducted heating keeps the home comfortable year-round. Outside, a large raised timber deck off the rear of the home provides a generous entertaining area, overlooking a sprawling backyard with established trees. Two garages and a laundry with external access complete the picture.
Perfectly positioned within the zones for Laburnum Primary School and Box Hill High School, and just a short walk from Box Hill Train Station and Box Hill Central with its extensive retail, dining, and transport connections, this is an address that offers lifestyle, location, and genuine long-term potential. Surrey Park, RHL Sparks Reserve and Box Hill Gardens are also within walking distance for extended outdoor recreation along with Aqualink Box Hill
