95 Blackburn Road, Blackburn, Vic 3130

Established trees and a striking stone facade set the tone for this light and bright brick home on approximately 841 sqm. With refreshed interiors, high ceilings and a warm, welcoming character, it sits within one of Blackburn's greenest pockets, in the Sanctuary area where no house can be built directly behind, with village shops, parkland, zoned schools and the train line all close by.
 
A tall, private front fence and expansive driveway with parking for up to five cars lead to a home hugged by greenery, where a feature stone wall and open fireplace anchor the sun-filled living room. Here, sliding doors open onto a pergola-covered deck, while the open plan living and dining area flows through to the U-shaped kitchen. Crisp white cabinetry, LED strip lighting, a double sink and new Smeg appliances bring both convenience and style.
 
There are four bedrooms, all with brand new refrigerated reverse-cycle air conditioning and three with built-in robes, including a main bedroom with a double built-in robe and ceiling fan. Two smartly renovated bathrooms feature matte black tapware and wall-hung vanities, with one offering a retreat-inspired fluted bath and walk-in shower, while the other includes a framed shower, round mirror and toilet. Fully upgraded plumbing and electricity, along with a brand new hot water system, provide additional peace of mind.
 
A path winds beneath a second pergola along the side of the home to the established rear garden. The large backyard, with open lawn, tall gum trees, a garden shed, wood storage and water tank, has endless room to play and grow. Parking is easy, with a covered carport.
 
Just a short walk to Blackburn Station, the home offers easy access to the village cafe and city commute, while Forest Hill Chase takes care of everyday needs. Blackburn Lake Sanctuary, Furness Park and the Whitehorse Heritage Trail are close by for walks and weekends outdoors. Zoned for the highly sought-after Box Hill High School and Blackburn Lake Primary School, this is an appealing family location with excellent connectivity.
