14 View Cres, Blackwood VIC 3458
Renovated house | expansive 2,327mยฒ lot | rare Blackwood offering | flexible 2-3 bed layout | elevated parkland setting
This property occupies a genuinely rare position in Blackwoodโa fully renovated house on a large, elevated lot where most comparable offerings are either unimproved or significantly smaller. The flexible bedroom count, with a study that doubles as a third room and a second bedroom featuring a skylight and attic, gives it an edge for downsizers wanting space or a couple needing a home office. The renovation has been thorough: restumping, new windows, insulation, underground power, and a wastewater treatment plant remove the deferred maintenance that typically burdens older houses in this area. For a buyer seeking a turnkey retreat with immediate occupancy and minimal future capital outlay, this property is competitively positioned. It serves best those who value land size and privacy over proximity to town amenities, and who are comfortable with a longer commute to Daylesford or Trentham for schools and services.
The primary risk is the discrepancy in bedroom countโlisted as two but valued as threeโwhich may narrow the buyer pool and affect future resale clarity. The separately titled adjoining allotment adds complexity rather than value unless consolidated, and the agent guide of $990,000 sits well above the indicative selling price of $650,000, suggesting a pricing gap that could confuse or deter offers. For a buyer, the opportunity lies in negotiating toward the lower end of the estimate range, given the market’s current softness in this corridor. Hold this property as a weekend retreat or permanent residence; its land component and renovation quality underpin long-term value, and the absence of major structural works ahead means holding costs are low.
