29 Lincon Avenue, Mont Albert North, Vic 3129

Its original owners built this beautiful blonde brick veneer in 1960 and it retains all its mid-century magic – big picture windows, natural light, hardwood floors, and a high rising position along leafy Lincoln Ave make for an absolute charmer. What's even more exclusive than coming to market for the first time in more than 60 years, is the property's rare parkland position backing onto the Koonung Creek Trail, which lets you ride all the way to the city.

From the back gate you can access the new playground, walk to the Elgar Park hockey grounds and oval, and across the pedestrian bridge to highly rated Birralee Primary, with the address also zoned for nearby Koonung Secondary (STSA).

The original home is in exceptional condition and has been enhanced by ducted heating and evaporative cooling, and s/s kitchen appliances including a Technika upright cooker. A clever extension adds an elevated rumpus as a second living space, with a timber deck alongside for al fresco drinks and views across the park.

Beyond the 3 bedrooms, central bathroom and laundry, a separate office/retreat with power and a trapdoor to the kitchen makes for a quirky home office, artist studio or children's cubby house.

The 588sqms (approx.) block is framed by neat established gardens, with a shady patio with artificial lawn, extended driveway, carport, storage room, and rainwater storage.

This is a chance to claim your place in the blue ribbon inner-east, with foodie favourites nearby at Eastern Bell and Dunyazad, travel connections via the Eastern Fwy, Doncaster Park + Ride, bus, train and tram services, private education choice at Fintona Girls School and Carey Grammar, PLC (Presbyterian Ladies College) and Deakin University, and medical services a 5min drive to Box Hill Hospital.
