85 Forest Road

Ferntree Gully VIC 3156

There’s something quietly exciting about a home like this - the kind that hints at what it’s been, and all it could become. With its retro mid-century style façade and a generous 790sqm block, this foothills address offers a rare opportunity to renovate, extend, rebuild (STCA), or simply enjoy as-is while you plan your next move.

Inside, the minimalist footprint is full of promise. Hardwood timber floors and high ceilings bring warmth and character to the open-plan living zone, where glass doors lead you out to a covered deck with café blinds. It’s an easy, breezy connection between indoors and out, overlooking a backyard that feels like a blank canvas – ready for backyard cricket, veggie gardens, or a future alfresco transformation.

The kitchen is neat and functional, equipped with a freestanding gas cooktop and oven plus a SMEG dishwasher, making it perfectly liveable from day one. Three bedrooms branch off the living area, two with floor-to-ceiling robes, all serviced by a family bathroom with a generous footprint - ripe for a modern refresh when the time feels right.

Outdoors, the scale of the land becomes your playground. There’s space to extend, reimagine or simply spread out and enjoy, with a covered deck complete with café blinds already in place and a generous yard that invites imagination. Secure gates lead through to a garage, complemented by a carport, storage shed and abundant off-street parking for multiple vehicles, boats or caravans.

Whether you’re a first home buyer with vision, an investor seeking future upside, or someone ready to create something entirely new, this is a property that rewards creativity and long-term thinking.

With the #691 bus stop at your doorstep, and just a short stroll to Ferntree Gully North Primary, Ferntree Gully Village, cafés and the train station, this is a location built for convenience. Nearby reserves, including Ferntree Gully Quarry, along with easy access to Boronia Village, Westfield Knox and EastLink, ensure everything you need is within easy reach.
