Gracefully positioned across from the Botanic Gardens in one of East Geelong's most coveted locations, "Craigieburn" is an exquisitely renovated Federation home that masterfully combines period elegance with sophisticated modern living.
Beyond its picture-perfect facade, complete with a classic verandah, intricate fretwork and colourful leadlight windows, the home reveals a sophisticated interior. Soaring ceilings adorned with ornate roses, original pressed tin detailing, and a wide hallway featuring a dramatic decorative archway are harmoniously paired with contemporary finishes, including engineered timber floors, a fresh white colour palette and stylish plantation shutters.
At the heart of the home, the expansive open plan living flows seamlessly onto a large undercover alfresco deck via bi-fold doors - creating the ideal setting for year-round indoor/outdoor entertaining and soaking up the afternoon sun. The designer kitchen showcases an island bench/breakfast bar appointed with stone benchtops, premium stainless steel appliances (900mm oven, 5-burner gas cooktop, Asko dishwasher) and a built-in pantry. Upstairs, a flexible retreat provides the option of a second living space, fourth bedroom or guest accommodation.
The luxurious master suite enjoys picturesque garden views through a bay window. It includes an original fireplace, sizable walk-in robe and spacious ensuite complete with dual vanities and a double shower. Two additional bedrooms are positioned near the main bathroom with a freestanding bathtub and walk-in shower. Further enhancing the home's appeal is a dedicated home office, laundry with external access, and a convenient powder room. Ducted gas heating, a reverse cycle heating/cooling unit, a gas log fire and ceiling fans throughout ensure comfort throughout the seasons.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive with beautifully manicured gardens, a dedicated firepit zone, built-in seating, and rear lane access to an oversized remote double garage with direct entry indoors. It also boasts a roller door to the side courtyard - perfect for storing cars, boats, or trailers, while double doors open directly to the backyard, making it ideal for entertaining on a grand scale.
Superbly located just moments from the CBD, Eastern Beach, and a only short walk to Garden Street's vibrant café scene. Only a moments' walk to the Geelong Hospital and Medical precinct and zoned to Tate Street Primary School, while Geelong's finest secondary colleges are all within easy reach. "Craigieburn" presents an exceptional lifestyle opportunity in an unbeatable location.
Potential rent return at a range of $850 per week.
