29 William Street Box Hill, 3128
Steeped in history and rich in character, 29 William Street presents a beautifully preserved Victorian weatherboard residence (c.1885), proudly recognised as one of the oldest original homes within the tightly held Ellingworth Park precinct. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this single-level home blends period elegance with modern family comfort in the heart of Box Hill.
Beyond the new picket fence and cottage-style gardens, the home unfolds into warm, light-filled interiors showcasing classic Victorian features including high ceilings, ornate cornices, ceiling roses, polished timber floors, and a traditional fireplace. The main living and dining zone is rich in character, highlighted by a striking raked ceiling, excellent natural light, and seamless connection to the outdoors via large windows and doors. Comfort is assured year-round with gas ducted heating and cooling throughout the home, complemented by split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans.
The kitchen is both functional and inviting, finished with stone benchtops, a four-burner gas cooktop with additional electric plate, large oven, and single-door fridge space. A double sink positioned within a bay window draws in natural light and garden outlooks, while timber flooring continues the home’s warm, cohesive feel. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the open-plan living and dining area, ideal for everyday living and entertaining.
Accommodation includes four well-proportioned bedrooms offering flexible family or work-from-home options. The master bedroom features a large walk-in robe and private ensuite, while two additional bedrooms include built-in robes. A versatile fourth space is fitted with full-wall shelving and can be utilised as a bedroom, additional living area, or home office/study, adapting easily to changing lifestyle needs. Flooring varies between plush carpet and timber, with ceiling fans to select rooms for added comfort.
The fully tiled master ensuite includes heating lamps and a glass benchtop vanity, while the central family bathroom features distinctive tiling, a bathtub, and laminate benchtop. A separate powder room enhances functionality, and a spacious laundry offers generous storage and everyday practicality.
Outdoors, a west-facing, raised covered timber deck overlooks a beautifully landscaped and established garden, creating a private sanctuary for entertaining or relaxed family enjoyment. Additional features include freshly laid stone pathways, a greenhouse for gardening enthusiasts, a garden shed, water tank, ample external storage, and a carport — all set within a peaceful, residential haven rarely found so close to Box Hill Central.
Positioned in a quiet street just moments from Box Hill Central and Laburnum Village, the home offers outstanding lifestyle convenience. A bus stop is located at the doorstep, with easy access to Box Hill Train Station, tram services, cafes, restaurants, and everyday amenities. Zoned for Box Hill High School and Laburnum Primary School, and close to St Francis Xavier’s Catholic Primary School and Kingswood College, the location is further enhanced by nearby green spaces including Blacks Walk and Victoria Rose Reserve
