This character home is situated on one of the nicest streets in Sassafras. With 3 bedrooms, a huge main bedroom upstairs with full ensuite, heaps of wardrobe space and its own private balcony offering a great parents retreat. There are 2 living areas, one with a cosy wood heater, and the other with an enticing bay window offering a fantastic place to relax and take in the lovely outlook or marvel at the birdlife that visits each day along the open decking area. A fully renovated bathroom and updated kitchen mean that the home is ready to move into and enjoy.
Outside offers the essence of a real hills garden, meandering paths and 1000s of bulbs, from camellias to azaleas offering something in flower all year round. Even in summer relax under the shade of the large chestnut tree or potter in your herb and veggie garden. All this along with ducted heating a separate spa area, workshop space, double carport, sealed driveway and only 8 approx. minutes’ drive to Belgrave and Upper Ferntree Gully townships. Or why not stroll into Sassafras village for afternoon tea. This property has so much more on offer that an inspection is a must.
Don't delay this property won't last long!
