We've all heard the saying about looks being deceiving. Never has that term been more pertinent than when used to describe this delightfully surprising family home that’s tailor-made for the large family. Split in two to offer separate accommodation for a young family and extended family members, it's a dream package for a growing household bursting at the seams. Occupying a sizeable 842sqm (approx.) allotment also makes development a possibility for the buyer with vision (STCA). Connected via a central two-way kitchenette/laundry area, seamless flow between the main four-bedroom residence and fully self-contained one-bedroom flat promotes peace of mind and a secure aspect. Furthermore, for parents of privacy-craving teenagers seeking their own retreat, it allows them to keep the older kids close at hand yet not underfoot! Original yet pristine in presentation, the main home is bathed in natural light and allows the future occupant to move straight in without a worry in the world. A radiant L-shaped lounge/dining arrangement enjoys abundant space and loads of light, while an intimate family living with a gas wall furnace offers a comfortable space to unwind with the kids once you've finished cooking a hearty meal in the spacious kitchen. The four bedrooms (Master with ensuite) of the main residence are of generous proportions and serviced by a light and bright family bathroom, while gas heating and air conditioning ensures you're kept warm in winter and cool in summer. The single-level one-bedroom flat featuring its own entry, separate living and bathroom also lends itself to a host of options, offering secure accommodation for the in-laws or the privacy-craving teenager. Not only is the home big on living space, but also in storage space, with a heap available inside the huge shed attached to the rear of the double carport. A manicured backyard with a neat lawn and undercover deck is a play haven for the kids, while all will appreciate the walking distance access to Forest Hill Chase, Mahoneys Reserve, Burwood Heights Primary School and Forest Hill College and close proximity of Burwood One Shopping Centre, Deakin University, Blackburn Lake, Burwood Highway trams and Blackburn train station.
