Positioned in one of Bendigo's most tightly held and walkable precincts, this two-bedroom townhouse is a rare opportunity to secure your slice of vibrant inner-city life. Tucked away in a private laneway just moments from the hospital, schools, cafés, and the CBD, 1 Forest Lane offers charm, lifestyle, and investment appeal in equal measure.
With a contemporary façade and thoughtful two-storey layout, this home strikes the perfect balance between character and function. Step inside to discover a light-filled living space with timber accents and exposed beams, complemented by terracotta-toned floors and crisp white finishes. A split system keeps the main living zone comfortable year-round.
The adjoining meals area features striking double-height windows, bringing in natural light and creating a true sense of openness. The kitchen is equipped with timber benchtops, a freestanding oven, modern appliances, and excellent storage, making it both stylish and practical.
Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms - each with built-in robes and ceiling fans - are separated by a central landing, ideal for a home office nook. The generous bathroom includes a full-size bath, while an additional split system adds comfort to the upper floor.
Outside, a private north-facing courtyard and undercover porch provide a leafy setting to unwind or entertain. A secure off-street car space accessed via the driveway adds practical value in this highly sought-after locale.
Notably, the home has enjoyed strong success as a short-term rental, generating over $50,000 in gross income in the past 12 months - a testament to its location, presentation, and ongoing demand.
This is more than a home - it's a lifestyle investment. Ideal for professionals, medical staff, downsizers, or savvy investors, you're just a short walk to Bendigo Health, Queen Elizabeth Oval, Tom Flood Sports Centre, and local schools like Catherine McAuley College.
