18 Woodhouse Grove, Box Hill North offers a rare opportunity to secure an original and characterful three-bedroom brick home on a generous 532sqm corner allotment, perfectly positioned in one of Box Hill North’s most convenient pockets. Wholly preserved since the 1970s, this single-storey home retains its period soul throughout, presenting a genuine canvas for those seeking to refresh or simply enjoy the warm atmosphere it already exudes, while also offering a development opportunity (STCA).
A paved path guides you through the neat established gardens and low brick boundary fence to the front porch and entry. Inside, a welcoming hallway sets the tone for the well-proportioned floorplan beyond, with a combination of carpet and vinyl flooring running throughout the home.
The living room forms the heart of the residence, anchored by a striking stone-surround fireplace with a decorative brass insert, providing a timeless focal point. A chandelier overhead, built-in shelving, crown cornice, and full-length blue curtains complete the room’s refined period atmosphere, while wall heaters ensure year-round comfort. The adjacent formal dining room continues the warm character of the home, featuring its own chandelier and generous proportions suited to entertaining.
The kitchen is well-appointed with white cabinetry, laminate benchtops, a green tile splashback, gas cooktop, electric oven, breakfast bar, and retro-patterned vinyl flooring that nods to the home’s era. A dedicated meals area sits alongside, creating a practical everyday living zone.
All three bedrooms are carpeted and feature curtains throughout. The main bedroom is particularly inviting, enhanced by a delicate pendant chandelier, wallpaper feature, crown cornice, and a classic dressing table. The central bathroom is finished in original pink half-height tiles with mosaic tiled flooring, a mirrored vanity cabinet, and a bath, complemented by a separate WC for added convenience. A laundry rounds out the floorplan.
Outside, the corner block delivers a well-maintained low-maintenance garden with neat lawns and established plantings. A single covered carport sits alongside the home, with a vehicle access gate providing additional flexibility. A water tank and patio complete the practical outdoor amenity.
Situated moments from Box Hill Central and Box Hill Station, with easy access to local parks, dining, and public transport along Whitehorse Road. Zoned for Box Hill North Primary School and Koonung Secondary College.
