86 Longview Road, Balwyn North

Moments from the shops and restaurants of North Balwyn Village and the coveted Balwyn High School, this well-loved 1950s residence is a potential rich offering in a highly sought-after, family-friendly location. Sitting on a prized 873sqm (approx.) corner parcel of land, the three bedroom house’s period appeal provides a rare opportunity to utilise its spacious accommodation while planning to transform it with a contemporary renovation or redevelopment for a luxurious new family home. Rich in mid-century character, the blonde brick residence welcomes with a spacious entry hall which introduces the generous proportions which are a hallmark of properties of this era. The north-east facing living and dining area is flooded with light and is blessed with dual aspect windows and leafy views over the surrounding neighbourhood from its elevated position. Further appointments include three bedrooms, an original kitchen with extensive cabinetry, central bathroom, reverse cycle heating and cooling, wooden floorboards and a lock up garage. Alternatively, utilise the dual 23 metre frontages on both Longview Road and Bernard Street to build something truly special. Take your cue from the neighbouring luxury double-storey homes to take advantage of the stunning city views. Ideally positioned in a picturesque, tree-lined avenue in the Balwyn High and Belle Vue Primary School zone and within easy reach of other leading schools via the tram on Doncaster Road, Westfield Doncaster, Koonung Creek Reserve and the Eastern Freeway. *All dimensions are approximate ** All potential uses of the parcel and/or dwelling are subject to council approval.
