Blocks of this size and position don’t come up in Bright anymore. This 1,200m² parcel sits in the centre of town and borders the Ovens River, with direct access from the back yard. It is one of the last big blocks left. You can move straight into the family home or look ahead to what the land could become.

The solid brick home was built around light and garden. Raked timber-lined ceilings with exposed beams give the living room a warm, open feel, with a brick open fireplace as its centrepiece. Polished timber floors run through the living and dining areas, which open to the garden. At the rear, the family room, breakfast nook and kitchen flow onto a covered patio, with slate floors underfoot and plenty of room for easy entertaining. There are four bedrooms plus an office, or five bedrooms if you need them, including a primary with its own bathroom. A second bathroom and a separate laundry complete the layout. The kitchen has timber cabinetry, a wall oven, an electric cooktop, a dishwasher and a breakfast bar. Split system air conditioning, ceiling fans and the open fire keep the home comfortable all year round.

Outside, established gardens wrap around the home, with mature trees, rose beds, wide lawns and a sunny courtyard. A sparkling kidney-shaped pool sits behind a safety fence, with paved surrounds and a covered patio for outdoor dining. There is a double garage, a circular gravel drive with plenty of parking and a separate storage shed. From the back yard you can step straight onto the river track and wander along the Ovens, with mountain views beyond.

The block is large, flat and right in the centre of town, which makes it a rare chance for a developer, builder or investor to explore subdivision or redevelopment (subject to council approval). Or keep the home as a family base or holiday retreat while you decide. Cafés, shops, the river and the rail trail are all within easy reach.

Opportunities like this don’t last, so call today to arrange an inspection.
