Box Hill 89 Thames Street
Classic Californian, Modern Potential
Centred upon a generous north-facing block and backing onto Box Hill Gardens, this weatherboard Californian bungalow presents a huge dilemma - renovate or redevelop? The gorgeous home boasts the well-maintained character features of soaring ceilings with decorative cornices and high skirtings, hardwood floors and spacious rooms. Two bedrooms at the front of the home boast true character style, the master bedroom with built-in wardrobes. With a wood heater set within a decorative mantle, the second bedroom would make a sophisticated formal living room. Two further bedrooms share the original central bathroom, where you can let your imagination run wild! A formal dining room with an open fireplace adjoins the updated kitchen and spacious informal living area. A dedicated meals area and generous family room surround the well-appointed kitchen illuminated by a skylight. The family room steps out to a covered patio, overlooking the generous cottage-style gardens that directly access Box Hill Gardens. Highlights: fireplaces, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, attic storage and a garage with storage/workshop. Fantastically central, walk to transport, schools, parks and Box Hill hospital, surrounded by excellent culture and food. Extremely attractive to developers, this flat land parcel lies within a low-rise, higher-density zone allowing multiple dwellings (STCA).
