Ornate, seductive and meticulously restored, this late 19th century colonial home will delight you with its sophisticated blend of period charm and modern comfort.
From the moment you approach the bold, black front door, there's a sense of presence you only get from a character home and a realisation that there is absolutely nothing left for you to do!
Careful attention has been paid to retain key old-world features such as the ornate ceiling rose in the living room, tongue and groove panelling, original doors and the fretwork that frames the bullnose verandah.
The home also includes three bedrooms, a modern kitchen and meals area with a 900mm Italian stainless steel gas cooker and a fully integrated dishwasher. The bathroom seamlessly blends period details like pressed metal and wood with modern features like a generous 900mm x 1200mm shower and European style laundry.
Outside, there is a low-maintenance garden, grassed areas, an outhouse with the second toilet, decent-sized driveway and a Tuscan-style courtyard abutting the neighbour's picturesque brick shedding. You will also find ramp access to the back door and a quaint Japanese plum tree.
Situated in the heart of Eaglehawk, you are a half minute walk from Aldi Supermarket, and only minutes to the town centre, doctor's offices, schools, cafs, botanical gardens, Canterbury Park sporting precinct, Lake Neangar, YMCA pool/gym, Mulga Bill playspace and the Star Cinema. You are also an easy stroll from bus stops and the Eaglehawk train station, which has regular morning trains for commuting to Melbourne.
Eaglehawk is known for its community spirit and better bang for your 'real estate' buck. Clear indicators of future capital growth are apparent, such as the development of the Eaglehawk train station precinct (stage one now underway), and recent works in the lake precinct. Buying now at today's prices could be a wise move!
