This original homestead, in the heart of the Balwyn High School zone, is only a few minutes' walk to Whitehorse Road and jam packed with period features.
The welcoming front verandah beckons, lending itself beautifully to a cup of tea while watching the world pass by. Set elegantly on the block, this handsome home has 11 foot ceilings, leadlight windows and wide front entry hall. Either side you will find three huge double bedrooms, leading into the Baltic lined formal lounge room, all with magnificent, ornamental fireplaces.
The light filled, open plan meals area abuts the large modern kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and crisp, white cabinetry. The large fully renovated family bathroom is fully enhanced by the spa which is crowned by the observatory-style glass ceiling.
The back yard is very user-friendly, with back verandah, paved entertainer's alfresco dining area and large undercover carport (access off John St). Gas ducted heating and split system air conditioning rounds out the picture.
With no heritage overlay, this 534sqm approx corner block is in such an enviable location - a 2 minute walk to 109 Tram, Whitehorse Road shopping village, Balwyn Park, Balwyn Cinema, the library and a myriad of Melbourne's private schools such as Strathcona, Fintona, Xavier, Genazzano, MLC, Carey, Trinity and Ruyton. All these wonderful features make this a wonderful family home or even your new "forever home" site.
