Last Listing description (July 2024)

Located along a blue-chip corridor that places Laburnum station and the highly sought-after Box Hill High School within walking distance - the local area provides the perfect setting for the property's next chapter, which can involve retaining it as a beautiful family home, re-envisioning it as something more modern, or redeveloping the site altogether (STCA).

Its original material elements and period details speak to an earlier era that remains irresistible in the face of more contemporary styles. Floor plan features include oversized living areas, north-facing sunroom, spacious outdoor entertaining, and substantial garage storage.

Classically comfortable, the property is versatile in approach, encouraging purchasers to move-in and gradually renovate at their own pace. Alternatively, its clear, level dimensions are remarkably well-suited to change and will respond well to any high-density development within the current building envelope (STCA).

For builders, yield-minded investors, or those looking for their next creative project, there are multiple pathways for success, all of which will benefit from its increasingly rare 886 sqm (approx) allotment.

Zoned for Laburnum Primary & Box Hill High School, the property enjoys close proximity to Box Hill Central, Box Hill Hospital, Blackburn village, local sports fields, Blackburn Lake Sanctuary, Forest Hill Chase, and the M3 Freeway.

Photo ID may be required for entry of Open for Inspections.
