Immense 963sqm block with north facing rear backing onto parkland

Peacefully secluded at the head of a court on an expansive 963sqm block, and boasting a coveted north-facing rear orientation, this immense property backs directly onto leafy Griff Hunt Reserve with private gated access. Presenting an exceptional opportunity for those looking to redevelop or to design and build a brand new dream family home, the location is just a short stroll from buses to both Croydon Station and Chirnside Park Shopping Centre. Surrounded by an array of parks and children’s playgrounds, the home is within easy reach of Brushy Creek Trail and Hochkins Ridge Flora Reserve, and mere moments from Chirnside Park Shopping Centre and the local Maroondah Village shopping precinct, with Coles and specialty retailers. With Oxley Christian College and Village School close by, the location is zoned for both Mooroolbark College and Yarra Road Primary School. Nearby buses also offer direct access to Eastland Shopping Centre and Mount Lilydale Mercy College, with Lilydale Lake walking trails just a fifteen minute drive away. Currently in need of some TLC, the existing single level home comprises a spacious living room with an open fireplace, a separate open plan living and dining area flowing to a sunny timber deck, and a large kitchen. The backyard offers a sprawling family-friendly lawn and a separate undercover paved terrace, while the home also includes three robed bedrooms, an ensuite plus central bathroom with separate W/C, a full laundry, and a double lock-up carport.
