The Scoresby family home sold for $1.17 million, a simple “hacker” that boosted its appeal to Knox buyers.
A simple “hacker” helped the Scoresby family cash after 21 years, and its George St Home sold for $1.17 million, far higher than the suburban median.
The four-bedroom home at 50 George Street is guided by guidance of $930,000 to $1,020,000, but exceeded expectations due to clever changes and fierce Knox buyer demand.
The couple bought the home in March 2004 for $309,000, which is equivalent to about $530,000 today.

Anthony Johnson of Barry Plant Rowville said he advised sellers to convert a second living area into a fourth bedroom, a testament to the game changer of the event.
“A four-bedroom home is better for buyers than three, and it opens up a large number of buyers for buyers,” Johnson said.
The family-friendly home features two living areas, a central kitchen with black wood cabinets, a large family and dining center, and a covered outdoor entertaining area with fruit trees and garden shed in the backyard.
Blackwood kitchen secures the home in the home with a spacious benchtop and flows to the spacious dining and family living areas.
There is a covered open air and private backyard with fruit trees and sheds, providing buyers with ready-made entertaining and storage options.
The oversized garage with rear roller doors and double driveways has also proven to be a hit, providing space for additional cars, caravans or boats.
Mr Johnson said there was strong confidence in the Knox market and many buyers were keen to take action before further reducing interest rates.
“There is no doubt that Knox will be a good spring with high demand and we’ve seen it hard for buyers to compete early,” he said.
The front lounge with garden views brings a second living space for the family, which was later adapted from the flexibility of the house.
The second living area was converted into a fourth bedroom, and mobile agent Anthony Johnson called the purchaser a “game changer.”
The result is easily the current proptrack home price of Scoresby at $989,000, highlighting the popularity of the suburbs among homes and upgraders.
The property is sold through a set date sale event ending on August 19.
