3 Forest Street, Castlemaine VIC 3450

Enjoyed for the past 20 years by the current owner, this delightful 60s weatherboard home is ready for a new owner and a new era. Neat and tidy and with all the feels, the home offers liveable comfort with scope to further enhance over time. Many original features are intact, with some improvements, offering those seeking a sense of nostalgia the opportunity to restore rather than replace.

The location, just a few hundred metres from the train station, town centre, Railway Hotel and weekly farmers’ market, enhances its appeal.

A traditional entrance leads to a cosy lounge on one side and main bedroom on the other. There are three bedrooms in total, the main with full wall of storage, and in keeping with the era the remaining bedrooms allow for freestanding robes.

From the lounge you have access to the kitchen with original cabinetry, gas cooking and a space to dine. Gas heating and ducted evaporative cooling keep the home comfortable. A 6-panel solar system helps offset electricity costs.

The bathroom has been updated and has a contemporary vanity with good storage and a large walk-in shower. At the rear, a sunroom, small home office and central laundry complete the floorplan.

A corner allotment, the property has two street frontages with access to the large 4.6m x 8.7m garage/shed through double gates in Bowden Street. A well-established claret ash provides privacy and shade to the rear yard and deck. A slimline water tank is for garden use and not to be discounted, the front yard is a sunny space and would be perfect to pop your veggie plots.
