Exceptional position on 1578sqm ready for your own Grand Designs
Showcasing 1970's mid-century architectural lines and boasting elevated, sweeping district views, this large family home sitting at the crest of the hill is offered to the market for the first time in nearly 50 years.
119 Burbong St offers you a rare opportunity to invest in your family's future. A perfect place to call home and transform into your own private sanctuary. The expansive yard is tiered over four levels with established trees and gardens to enjoy and enhance at your desire. Is it a tropical pool, a fruit orchard and vegie patch, room to kick a ball, room for a large dog to run, a parking area for the caravan and boat, or is it something else you need room for?? There is so much opportunity for all these things.
The upper level of this three-storey home is the social hub, offering formal and informal living and dining spaces, an original kitchen and separate utility room. With expansive glazing all round, near 360 degree district views can be appreciated from every angle, along with the cool afternoon breezes that flow throughout the house. At the top of the hill these leafy views can never be built out. The north-east facing balcony is the place for entertaining family and friends, and just perfect for a quiet cup of tea too.
The middle level encompasses the master bedroom plus four other bedrooms, a family bathroom and heaps of storage and shelves. All the bedrooms enjoy lovely views well beyond the property lines, and have built-in robes and dressers. The open double garage is on this level with a secured utility space aswell.
The opportunity exists to build a double carport and new entry directly from the street into the upper level of the house, providing ease of access into the main living areas and likewise out to the open grassed area. This would allow the existing garages on the middle level to be transformed into a large parent's retreat, a teenager's retreat, a home office and studio, or more.
The lower level of the house opens directly out onto a grassed terrace and includes the laundry and second bathroom with a large, secured area perfect for a family playroom and a workshop, plus a good bit of under-house dry storage space as well.
A bitumen driveway on the far boundary of the block provides additional vehicular access down to both the middle and lower levels with room for several vehicles and large family toys and equipment, with a single carport on the mid-level.
The lowest tier of the extensive yard is currently underdeveloped and provides perfect room for a pool terrace and gardens.
The opportunities really do abound.
