North Facing and Rich in Light

Situated on approximately 669 sqm, this property offers significant potential for subdivision (STCA), making it a fantastic investment for those looking to capitalize on its prime location. Owner-built in the 50s, this charming weatherboard home sits in one of the most picturesque streets of Box Hill North, surrounded by a fringe of parkland and located within the highly sought-after school catchment for Koonung Secondary and Box Hill North Primary (STSA).

The property boasts a heart-shaped fishpond in the front garden, symbolizing good energy and treasured family memories, having been the family's home for almost 80 years. The north-facing frontage draws in beautiful light, with the afternoon sun streaming across the expansive rear garden, which is adorned with established fruit trees.

The home itself is a quality weatherboard construction, retaining the charm of its mid-century design, with large corner windows, locally sourced hardwood floors, and hand-crafted cabinetry that adds a built-in buffet to the kitchen. A light-filled front living room is complemented by a sunroom at the back, equipped with cosy bench seating - perfect for use as a playroom or a study, conveniently located close to the fourth bedroom.

The property includes a grand verandah, extended driveway, carport, garage, workshop, and solar panels. Coming to market for the first time in a generation, this rare offering is set in a tightly held pocket near the Koonung Trail, Eastern Freeway, tennis club, and local shopping precincts such as Kerrimuir Village, Blackburn Square, and Box Hill Centro. It's also within walking distance of top-ranking public schools, helping you avoid the peak hour rush of school pick-up and drop-off.

Whether you're looking for a family home with character or seeking a development opportunity, this property has the potential to meet both needs.
