Built circa 1920, this lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated three-bedroom weatherboard home rests on a rare, level 2,410m² allotment in one of Boolarra's most desirable addresses. Combining timeless charm with modern upgrades, it offers the perfect balance of space, character, and lifestyle appeal.
Positioned to maximise the usability of its generous block, the home welcomes you with a sheltered front porch that sets the tone for what lies within. Inside, the period elegance shines—with soaring ceilings and hardwood floors creating a warm, inviting atmosphere in the central hallway.
The formal lounge, warmed by a wood fire, features decorative cornices, a timber mantle, pendant lighting, and double-hung timber windows framing garden views. The country-style kitchen/dining continues the home's warm aesthetic, with timber panelling, pendant lighting, a split system, timber benchtops, a dishwasher, and an ornamental fireplace surrounding the electric cooker.
Each bedroom carries its own period charm. Bedrooms one and two include built-in robes, while bedroom three—opening via French doors to the backyard—offers flexibility as a retreat, studio, or home office. The renovated bathroom blends modern comfort with vintage appeal, and the updated laundry provides excellent storage and outdoor access.
Outdoors, the expansive rear garden is a standout, offering space for children, pets, or quiet relaxation. A covered patio is perfect for alfresco dining, while a generous, powered shed with concrete floor, plus a lean-to, adds valuable storage.
For those seeking self-sufficiency, the property boasts a flourishing orchard with pear, mulberry, nectarine, fig, apple, avocado, citrus, cherry, and quince trees, alongside a fenced vegetable garden, chicken coop, and wood store.
With its proven rental history, having recently returned $390 per week, the property offers versatility—appealing equally to first-home buyers, young families, investors, and those seeking a tree change or a comfortable, move-in-ready home with room to grow.
Boolarra is loved for its friendly community, picturesque landscapes, and relaxed pace. Nestled in the Strzelecki Ranges, the town offers scenic walking trails, popular events like the Boolarra Folk Festival, and excellent local facilities—including Boolarra Primary School, shops, and the Grand Ridge Rail Trail—all within easy walking distance. For young families, the Boolarra Kindergarten and playgroup, are conveniently located just across the road.
Blending historic character with modern conveniences, while ideally positioned close to community amenities and natural attractions, 21 Church Street presents an exceptional lifestyle opportunity on a substantial allotment in a highly sought-after position.
