THE DEAL

One of the east’s most beloved neighbourhoods plays host to this post-war prize blending classical charm with modern comforts, brilliant for a family to move right in, establish roots, and live luxuriously for years and decades to come.

With a hedge-lined path, deep setback, and ‘50s style making an impression to remember, a first-class interior offers a family outstanding flexibility and space to spare. Four substantial bedrooms are well-served by extensive robe storage, a smart central bathroom with a soaker bath and separate WC, and ensuite in a generous master; perfect complements to a garden-viewing front sitting room with a working fireplace and a wide-open living/dining space divine for nights by the gas-log fire. All-day sunlight adds to the upscale ambiance, while bi-fold doors merge inside and out to make entertaining as easy as could be. An alfresco deck spans a covered dining setting and open-air lounge great for barbecue or drink on a summer evening, while tall hedges bring welcomed privacy to a child-friendly backyard.

A full-size office proves ideal for home workdays and school-age kids, while further highlights include hardwood floors, ducted heating/cooling, alarm/camera security, a large laundry, carport comfortably housing two cars, and front veranda for a quiet morning with a coffee in-hand. Footsteps to Blackburn Square shops, multiple parks and sporting fields, numerous bus routes, the Koonung Creek Trail, and acclaimed Old Orchard Primary, Blackburn High (both zoned), St Phillip’s Primary, it’s only moments to the lifestyle attractions surrounding Blackburn Station, Box Hill’s bustling heart, Westfield Doncaster, elite private schools, the Lake Sanctuary, and Eastern Freeway.
