Every buyer who searches for Shaftsbury Rd or Shaffsbury starts with one question: which property fits my life? A for sale plot of 5.77 acres on East Road shows a for sale sign on the roadside, an orange flag, a large tree, and a cluster of boulders as you drive north.
Across town, a four bedroom detached property on shaftesbury avenue in south hall sits half a mile from southfield train station, which crossrail will soon serve, and it offers driveway parking, a carport, a front entrance, a main entrance hallway, stairs to the first floor, a kitchen, a living area, a dining room, and a family room.
While agents like tracyab royalty show a five bedroom, three bathroom brand new duplex at 50 charlesboro, deniston west, an architecturally designed home across two luxury levels that I see as a family home and an investment in a sought after location.
Shaftsbury Rd Location and Nearby Access
Location decides daily comfort on Shaftesbury Rd, so I always check walking distance to transport first. Southfield train station sits half a mile away, and Crossrail will soon call there, while Denison train station west stands close to a great marketplace, a library, and the Eastwood shopping centre.
Buses run to the top right city centre, the Parramatta CBD, and the Macquarie shopping centre, and on the land side I use 4964 as the nearest mailbox and the forale sign on the roadside as a marker, so if you drive north past Glossenberry Road, you must turn around.
Parking, Garage and Entrance
Homes near Shaftsbury Rd often include driveway parking with a carport that leads you straight to the front entrance and the main entrance hallway, where stairs climb to the first floor.
A garage opens onto the rear garden, and a lock-up garage with internal access gives you ample storage for tools and bikes. In Northern Shbury, you can park off road on the land, and I suggest you pull on your muck boots before you walk around.
Living, Dining and Family Areas
The family room faces the front of the property with a large bay window and a feature fireplace, and the living slash dining room has a generous size, windows to two aspects, and a large storage cupboard.
Sliding patio doors open onto the rear garden, and two large skylights pour daylight into the room. Newer homes around shaftsbury rd prefer open plan living and dining that flows onto an undercover alfresco terrace with a built-in outdoor barbecue and a low maintenance yard.
Kitchen
A good kitchen sets the mood of a home, so I check the iron base level units, the space for a cooker and a dishwasher, and the stainless steel sink with a mixer tap. One kitchen here has a skylight and a window that looks over the rear garden.
A modern kitchen adds a quality island benchtop, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in butler pantry with ample storage, and an internal laundry.
Bedrooms
The first floor holds four bedrooms, and the first of the double bedrooms sits at the top of the stairs with a large bay window over the front of the property, fitted storage, room for a king-size bed, and additional wardrobe space, while the second has a window onto the rear garden.
The single bedroom can take a double bed, and the carpeted top floor of the newer duplex gives you a master bedroom with a walk-in room, a freestanding spa, and built-in roofs, as the listing calls them. Two bedrooms downstairs work well as a home office or in-law accommodation.
Bathrooms
The downstairs shower room has a low-level WC, a hand wash basin with a mixer tab, and a corner shower unit, while the family bathroom adds tile to surround, a mixer tap, and a corner jacuzzi bath. The duplex offers three luxury-styled bathrooms, all with showers and recessed fittings. Upstairs, the rooms open to a balcony, which I find a lovely extra.
Outdoor Space, Garden and Grounds
On the land off shaftsbury rd, the owners have cleared about 1 acre of the 5.77 acre parcel, and the rest stays wooded, so you get open space and a strong tree line.
The crew burned timber and debris in a fire, and that left a burn pit and a burn pile. In town, the rear garden has a generous size with a large lawn area, a pathway, a brick-based shed, and a large outbuilding that gives you storage space or becomes an office, while a low maintenance yard with a built-in outdoor barbecue suits busy owners.

Hoffman Real Estate will represent the seller of the land, and you can tour the property yourself or ask for a land tour. Please do not approach the seller directly, because I always go through the agent first.
