Set on a generous 736sqm block with a wide 16m street frontage, this classic single-level home offers immense future potential in a sought-after family neighbourhood. Cared for by its original owners since construction by the family in 1952, and retaining elegant features including lofty ceilings with ornamental cornices and picture rails, the home provides scope for renovations and extension to enhance the light-filled floorplan. With several subdivisions in the immediate vicinity, the level site is also ideal for those looking to redevelop, or to design and build a brand new luxury family home (STCA).
Positioned just metres from buses, the property is within easy walking distance of Blackburn Primary School, Whitehorse Primary School, Nicoll Park, Nunawading Tennis Club, and local shops with The Peddler Café. Leafy Cootamundra Walk leads directly to Blackburn High School, and to Blackburn Square Shopping Centre with Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, and an array of independent retailers and restaurants. The Eastern Freeway is a quick four-minute drive for seamless city and peninsula access, with Blackburn Station also moments away.
Privately set back from the street amidst leafy established gardens, the home features a generous living room and a large separate dining area. The spacious skylit kitchen includes a casual meals area, charming original cabinetry, and a freestanding gas oven and stove.
Two large bedrooms are set alongside a central bathroom with a shower over bathtub, plus a convenient second toilet and a full laundry with direct outdoor access.
