Buyers will love this tastefully renovated block-fronted solid brick and weatherboard cottage, where the timeless charm and character of the late 1800s blend seamlessly with stylish modern updates.
Perched on the doorstep of the CBD, the stunning free-standing home known as "Myola" enjoys uninterrupted views of the neighbouring Cathedral spire. Set back from the street, the iron-lace trimmed front verandah is the perfect place to enjoy coffee or drinks anytime, day or night.
Inside, discover a bright and airy haven of yesteryear charm beautifully updated in all areas. It delivers three lovely bedrooms, all with built-ins and two with classic, open fireplaces. The second front bedroom doubles as a formal sitting room if desired. The third bedroom is at the rear.
The central open-style living and dining rooms feature another beautiful marble-topped fireplace with a cosy gas-log fire flanked by built-in cabinets and bookshelves.
The dining room features a unique Frank Lloyd-Wright-inspired art deco leadlight glazed skylight and adjoins the light-filled kitchen. The fully refurbished kitchen showcases ample storage and bench space with a sleek NEFF 4 burner gas cooktop, oven and dishwasher ready for budding chefs.
The skylight-lit bathroom boasts a walk-in shower and a new stone-topped vanity surrounded by feature full-height and floor tiling. A separate WC and walk-through laundry complete the interior. Timber decking off the kitchen/living area creates a sun-drenched outdoor area.
A lovely private courtyard at the rear of the lot is the perfect place for hosting gatherings with a landscaped backdrop, including a hedge of recently planted white camellias. Bitumen paths lead to the side entrance of an under-house studio/office and a store room for garden tools, etc.
In the past few years, the home has seen fresh paintwork, new vinyl plank flooring, carpets, blinds, light fittings, a split system air conditioning unit, a carport and recently built and refreshed landscaping.
Living mere footsteps from the CBD, you will appreciate leaving the car at home and walking distance to Sacred Heart Cathedral, Girton Grammar, Bendigo Art Gallery, Ulumbarra Theatre, View Street precinct, cafes, restaurants, Rosalind Park, Primary and Secondary schools, the Bendigo CBD and the Bendigo Train station.
