151 Cambridge Road,

Mooroolbark

Offered for the first time in decades, this is a reluctant but heartfelt sale of a much-loved home that has only ever been owned by two families. A place where milestones were celebrated and memories made, it has been cherished by the current owners for generations. Set on a generous corner block of approximately 884sqm, the residence, standing proudly as one of the first in the area, was built with integrity. With a functional floorplan, generous parking and workshop space, it's set up for a family to enjoy, while offering exceptional versatility and practicality for storing multiple vehicles, running a home-based business, or tinkering away on weekend projects. Boasting solid foundations, 9ft ceilings, a terracotta roof and excellent insulation, the home presents a wonderful canvas for its next chapter. And while the owners would love nothing more than to see the home embraced by another family, its corner placement and dual access also present a terrific opportunity for those with redevelopment ambitions (STCA). The location is just as special, set back from the road so it feels peaceful, yet incredibly central to everything. You can walk to bus stops, trails, parks and Pembroke Primary School, or you can be in the heart of Mooroolbark within minutes. Here, you'll find pretty much everything you need, including a train station, shops, cafes, restaurants, Coles supermarket, childcare centres, schools, a library plus quality medical and community facilities.
