18 Lansdown Street
Balwyn North

Set on a wide, deep allotment with no heritage overlay in one of the north's most tightly held family pockets, this solid brick single-level home presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial parcel of land within footsteps of Balwyn North Primary School, moments from Balwyn High School, and surrounded by the leafy residential streets that make this enclave so consistently sought after.

Whether your plan is to renovate, rebuild or reimagine entirely (STCA), the scale and orientation of this block offer real scope for a considered new build, or a footprint substantial enough to extend and reshape the existing home. A neat front garden opens to a wide entry hall, leading to a north-facing front bedroom and a second bedroom, both with built-in robes and split system units. Opposite, a bright living and dining zone unfolds around an open fireplace, split system comfort, and broad windows framing the rear garden. Timber floorboards run underfoot through the entry, living and bedrooms, adding warmth throughout.

The kitchen retains genuine period character, offering abundant cabinetry alongside a charming built-in breakfast nook overlooking the garden, a rare original detail. A well-proportioned laundry with external access completes the floor plan, alongside a bathroom in original style featuring a bathtub, separate shower, and an adjacent WC.

Outside, the expansive rear garden is ready to be enjoyed as is or held as a canvas for a future build. A tandem driveway provides off-street parking to the side.

Beyond the home itself, the true drawcard is the address. Local parks, walking trails, public transport, cafes, shops and the Eastern Freeway all sit within easy reach, with Westfield Doncaster and further shopping nearby. The area's schooling credentials extend further still, taking in Greythorn Primary School, St Bridget's Primary School, Kew High School and Melbourne's celebrated private school corridor.

A genuine opportunity to secure position, scale and long-term potential in a location families recognise as one of the area's most appealing addresses.
