50 Curtin Street, Flora Hill VIC 3550

Position-perfect, this character home is like the TARDIS; it may look small on the outside but has surprising space inside.
Situated opposite BSEC and a bus stop, it's within easy walking distance of La Trobe University, Strath/Kennington Village shops and cafes, childcare, sporting facilities, medical clinics and the bush walking paths of One Tree Hill Regional Park. It's also a five-minute drive to the centre of Bendigo.
Surrounded by delightful gardens, the renovated and extended home features a main bedroom with a walk-through robe to a two-way bathroom and three additional bedrooms (or 2 + study), serviced by a second bathroom.
Living areas include a front sitting room, overlooking native front gardens, and a split-level extension, containing the kitchen and a spacious living/dining room, where bamboo flooring gleams beneath the high ceiling, with its exposed trusses accentuating height and space.
The modern kitchen hosts Fisher & Paykel electric cooking appliances and new dishwasher, stainless steel splash back, and ample storage, including a walk-in pantry.
But the pièce de résistance is the living/dining room, where a wall of north-facing windows and sliding doors bring the rambling cottage-style gardens inside. Framed by a vine-draped pergola, providing summer shade, fiery autumn colour and filtered winter sunshine, the outlook also takes in the paved alfresco area off the kitchen.
The approx 643m² block features a stunning specimen lemon-scented gum, taking centre stage in the rear garden, with productive vegetable beds, numerous fruit trees, a hen house and run, two garden sheds and a 20,000ltr rainwater tank.
Other notable inclusions are cost-saving 2Kw solar power, gas-ducted heating and evaporative cooling, two split-system air conditioners, laundry storage and off-street parking.
Prepare to be charmed by this intriguing home – it could be your new address, but only if you're quick!
