A surprise awaits behind the charming period facade of this inner-city property. It might look like a modest cottage outside, but inside it packs a punch.
Fully renovated and extensively extended, it offers lifestyle perfection and ample space for family living.
Circa 1880, the home is now filled with natural light and successfully combines period charm and modern living expectations with sophisticated formal and casual living areas, four robed bedrooms and two all-new bathrooms.
The outstanding renovation utilises the best of the old and the best modern features.
It begins with a traditional long hallway with pine floorboards and 3.5 m high ceilings with decorative cornice. Other enhanced original features include open fireplaces, bay windows to the front rooms and replica chandelier lighting.
Modern additions include light, monochrome décor, built-in robes, wall/floor tiling, walk-in showers and wall-hung vanities in both bathrooms and freestanding bath in the main.
Expansive open-style kitchen, dining and family living includes a brick feature wall, cheery wood heater, polished concrete floor, built-in wall unit and a wall of glass overlooking a grassed play space in the backyard.
The fabulous new kitchen shines with pendant lights over a long waterfall-ended island, Smeg 900mm stainless steel dual fuel range, dishwasher, loads of soft-close drawers and double-door pantry.
Ducted heating/cooling, linen storage in the laundry and a toilet beside the main bathroom complete the interior.
A 5m x 14m tandem garage with rear access from Queen Street provides the luxury of secure off-street parking with gym and workshop areas, powder room and a unique loft apartment above it. With personal access from King Street, the loft is a versatile workspace/home office or teen retreat with fabulous views of the Bendigo skyline.
In addition to the quality features that the home offers, the property is dual-zoned (residential and commercial) creating the option to run a business from your home (STCA).
Few homes offer such innovation, spaciousness and quality in such a prime location, metres from the CBD, cinema, Marketplace, Railway Station, cafes, restaurants etc.
