24 Gerald Street, Blackburn

This prime property on 652m2 (approx.) with ideal northerly orientation to the rear, offers a rare opportunity with not one, but two dwellings to utilise as you decide, or build your dream family home (STCA). Positioned amongst a backdrop of green space and bushland surrounds, you’re on the doorstep of Blackburn Lake Sanctuary with its natural beauty, and in close proximity to a variety of desirable amenities, including Forest Hill Chase, local buses, trains at both Blackburn and Nunawading Stations, plus the coveted Blackburn Lake and St Thomas Primary Schools.

The first home is a beautifully presented and spacious family home with four robed bedrooms and two bathrooms. A separate and inviting living-dining room at the entry offers an open fireplace and clerestory windows providing mid-century appeal while the stunning barn sliding door separates this relaxing space from the busy hub of the home. The well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bench for casual mealtimes is the light filled centerpoint and overlooks the substantial north facing family room and family friendly backyard. All areas enjoy an abundance of natural light flow and Tasmanian Oak floorboards that allow a melding of the spaces. Outside, a sizeable, grassed yard, and a large brick paved patio with a substantial shade sail and a canopy of grapevines entwined with festoon lighting will feel like you’re on a Tuscan getaway and is the perfect back drop for social gatherings. The home is complete with the creature comforts of five split system air-conditioners, a full-sized laundry with storage and beautifully renovated bathrooms. The second dwelling spans two floors, with the ground floor housing a bedroom, a bathroom and a storeroom that could be converted to a study area, while upstairs the open plan zone comprises a living-dining room and a full kitchen making it fully self-contained. It is also made comfortable by split system heating and air-conditioning, laundry space and small dedicated courtyard.
