1 Gundry Street, Long Gully VIC 3550

Good things come to those who've been waiting for an affordable home. Here it is; a cosy weatherboard with three bedrooms, good living spaces, original features and a convenient location.

Gundry Street is within walking distance of the excellent Long Gully IGA, and approximately 4km from the heart of Bendigo, with easy access to public transport.

This corner property has Colorbond fences, plus side vehicle access to a carport and a great-sized shed. The mature, leafy trees in the front and back yard were a wise addition all those decades ago.

Inside, high ceilings, picture rails and decorative cornice remain intact. Other notables of the fifties build are timber sash windows and a cream brick hearth in what is now the spacious main bedroom.

The large rear loungeroom is lovely, with its big picture windows, sliding glass door, split system cooling and heating, and its wood heater. There are also ceiling fans throughout the house.

The kitchen/dining space is also almost original, with its banks of painted timber cabinets, and its upright stove nestled in a tiled alcove. Do your dishes under the window, with a view to the neighbourhood.

The bathroom also has loads of retro character, thanks to its decorative tiles, powder blue pedestal basin and bath. The laundry and toilet are separate, with easy access to the backyard, and the full-length rear veranda.

Appreciate this neat and homely house as-is, or value add with your own renovations. Either way, it's a solid start for anyone looking for value and potential.
