This two-storey double-brick period gem is a vision splendid with beautiful views. Occupying a large corner block in the desirable suburb of Box Hill South, it is a superbly maintained property with a stately feel. On a very quiet part of Riversdale road that has no tram lines but is just a few minutes walk from the Surrey Hills tram stop.

The refinement of this home is immediately evident, with the large, richly carpeted living area comprising an impressive stone mantel and fireplace, as well as large windowed doors opening onto an elevated stone patio at the rear. The authentic kitchen, with its utterly distinctive semi-circular dining bay jutting out into the deep yard, is a singular feature. The downstairs provides a powder room, a large spacious and peaceful bedroom with built-in-robes opening onto a second stone-work patio.

Upstairs, the quiet class of the property continues with two large bedrooms (each with built-in robes), as well as a sterling example of a well-appointed period bathroom. Comfort and character details extend throughout. From the sheltered, terraced front garden to the large, sweeping rear yard with laneway access and double garage, there are few unreconstructed masterpieces like this remaining.

Set amidst the beloved green parklands of the eastern suburbs within walking distance to Wattle Park, near to the esteemed Deakin University, and a short walk from schools, diverse shops and transport, this represents a rare opportunity to lease a prestige home in a much sought-after location.
