Superbly positioned on one of the highest points in North Balwyn, this generous 1328sqm (approx.) property provides an inviting opportunity to nurture the character and charm of its brick home, or to rebuild or redevelop (STCA).

Upstairs, a spacious master suite makes the most of the expansive views, with a large ensuite and walk in robe providing space and practicality. A large bedroom also enjoys wide vistas, with a family bathroom completing the picture.

Outside, the sizable garden welcomes both relaxation and recreation. An inground swimming pool and trampoline add a playful touch with a pergola providing a pleasant place to sit. The central terrace sits in the middle of the action. A studio space suited to many purposes such as home office or games room, is complemented by a fully self-contained apartment with sitting room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette that acts as accommodation for an au pair, grandparent or visitor.

On a practical note, a 4-car garage and flexible storage / wine cellar options throughout make for convenient living.
