94 Rowan Street, Bendigo VIC 3550

Brilliantly located, this renovated Californian bungalow is typical of the style. The brick and roughcast construction features the characteristic low pitched roof sloping to a wide front verandah supported by art-deco influenced masonry piers. Timber double-hung front windows and double front entry retain the original lead-light glazing.

Inside the mix of old and new has been successfully mastered - it's like a breath of fresh air with crisp white paintwork, polished timber floors and white plantation shutters filtering the light.

Original internal features typical of the style include high ornate ceilings and cornices, wide window sills and two brick, open fireplaces, all with an art deco influence.

Accommodation includes a lounge room off the entry hall, three bedrooms, dining/sitting/fourth bedroom and two bathrooms.

The main bedroom includes built-in robes and direct access to the updated two-way bathroom boasting bath, shower, vanity and WC. The second bedroom also enjoys access to the bathroom from the hallway.

Opposite the kitchen, the north-facing dining room includes a split system a/c and offers flexibility to be utilised as a fourth bedroom or sitting room if desired.

The kitchen will appeal to the most discerning resident chefs with  electric/gas cooking appliances, a dishwasher, a double pantry cupboard and a breakfast bar. Timber sliding doors roll back to connect the sun-drenched rear alfresco entertaining deck. The third bedroom, tucked behind the kitchen, is serviced by the second bathroom/laundry combo with shower, vanity and separate WC.

The fully enclosed backyard includes a garage/workshop accessed from Vine Street and more off-street parking space. Neat easy-care landscaping includes white iceberg roses and sweeping lawns behind the traditional front picket fence.

The standout feature of the property is the location. The elevated lot, approx 510m² enjoys views of the nearby cathedral spire, is one block from Girton College and an 800-metre walk to the CBD shops, cafes, restaurants, theatres, etc.

This Californian charmer has enjoyed many cherished yesterdays and has even more promising tomorrows ahead.

Picture perfect inside and out - it makes the ideal first home, a nostalgic downsizer or attractive addition to an investment portfolio (think Airbnb).
