Radiating the charming glow of yesteryear, yet bursting at the seams with modern possibilities, "Gordon House" is a wonderful example of Quarry Hill living. At the very edge of the city centre, yet firmly planted in peaceful suburbia, this 570sqm (approx.) property offers most attributes that are fiercely sought-after by inner-city buyers.
The attractive and unassuming façade belies a well proportioned four bedroom home brimming with heritage features, which has undergone a recent renovation sympathetic to the era. This wonderful home has a strength of character, and despite the modern additions it is easy to visualise how families throughout the home's history may have used the spaces.
Honey toned polished Baltic floor boards guide you through the length of the home, past the formal lounge room with patio doors, to the beautifully appointed modern country' kitchen with timber benchtops, 900mm freestanding gas cooker and an exposed brickwork fireplace surround with an ornamental combustion stove.
The home has four bedrooms, each with distinctive details. At the front of the home are two bedrooms, one with a stunning ornamental fireplace and built in robe, the second with built in robe and a semi-ensuite (shower and toilet). The main bedroom is huge, with wall to wall built in robes and a decorative open fire place, and the fourth bedroom has excellent storage and a large window to the rear yard.
Painstakingly restored, the timber dado boards and cornices blend harmoniously with the 10' ceilings, modern colour scheme and lighting choices. Both practicality and modern sensibilities have been taken into account; the home features multiple split system heating and cooling units, ducted gas heating, ceiling fans, a gas log fireplace, plantation shutters and a free-standing canopy claw foot tub.
From Little Breen Street there is double gate access to the rear yard, with the concrete crossover more than capable of accommodating cars, boats, trailers and caravans. There is a 3.5m x 6.2m studio or gym space, which could also be used as an entertaining space in addition to the under cover wide-planked timber deck.
In a notable and elite inner city location, captivating Gladstone Street displays a myriad of Victorian-era homes constructed out of the spoils of the early Bendigo gold rushes. The location is wonderful for those working from home, with excellent street exposure and parking for clients, and highly suitable for those returning to work in the CBD and wanting to leave the car at home. Just a 400m walk to the train station and nearby all of Bendigo's local attractions and restaurants, excellent schooling and shopping experiences.
