180 Lily Street, Ironbark VIC 3550

This renovated Victorian could well be Lily Street's best kept secret. The perfect home is privately tucked behind a modern build, ensuring peace, quiet and security. Venture down the driveway and enter another world, where old gold Bendigo has been polished to perfection.

The home has undergone an impressive renovation, while retaining enough period features to deem it utterly charming; cue the traditional front veranda with fretwork.

The front door, with blue and red side glass, opens to a classic central hallway, off which are the three bedrooms. Each bedroom has a built-in-robe with shaker-style cupboard doors. One has a sweet open fireplace; another has a split system.

The hallway leads to a bright, white semi-open plan living area allowing for contemporary family life and entertaining. Gleaming 14mm woven bamboo floating floorboards bring warmth to the space. Neat down lights compliment feature pendants. Another split system takes care of the comfort. Dual open fireplaces hint at the days gone by.

The kitchen is beautiful, with its stone look benchtops and white subway tiles. It features a stainless-steel under-bench oven, gas cooktop, rangehood, dishwasher and pretty leadlight windows.

The combined laundry-bathroom is a practical choice. It has a wide shower, lots of bench space and separate toilet.

A flexible room at the rear welcomes in the northern sun. Claim it as a multipurpose/hobby room or home office . From here, a big glass slider opens to a sunny concrete area. Simply add some greenery potted plants for an instant oasis.

The boundary is well fenced. The side yards include elevated and established gardens of trees and hedging.

Lily Street shares a neigbourhood with St John of God Hospital and Fortuna Villa, placing it in the heart of this health and heritage precinct on the fringe of inner Bendigo with the Arts precinct and QEO a short 10min walk away.
