The street has been quietly reinventing itself, with smart new homes rising on either side, and this single-level classic on a corner allotment of approximately 702sqm could be next in line. Frontage to Tower Road and Morris Street gives the block outstanding flexibility, whether the vision is a grand family residence designed around both outlooks or multiple dwellings with independent access (STCA).
The house itself has history behind it, with three-metre-high ceilings, generously proportioned rooms and some original character still intact. A front porch leads to the interior, where a spacious living room with a gas heater connects to a dining room. The kitchen retains its timber-look cabinetry and there's a rear sunroom, three bedrooms, a central bathroom, walk-in laundry and separate toilet, all warmed by ducted heating. A substantial renovation could restore it to its former standing, though the stronger case is for replacing it with something contemporary, built from the ground up.
Outside, curving paths wind through established lawns and mature trees, with a clothesline and garden shed at the rear. A garage and adjoining carport sit behind double gates at the side, providing secure parking for two vehicles.
The property is zoned for the coveted Balwyn High School and Balwyn North Primary School, and both are close enough to walk to each morning, so the school run seldom needs the car. It also lies between Hislop Park and Macleay Park. The cafés and shops of North Balwyn and Greythorn villages are nearby, the route 48 tram travels along Doncaster Road to Kew and the city, and Westfield Doncaster and the Eastern Freeway are only minutes away.
