Sweet 'Carlton' showcases all the character and features you'd expect from a classic 1890s-era home. There's original fireplaces and interior pine lining boards, a bullnose verandah and original timber floorboards. A recent renovation has added extra appeal to this four-bedroom home, yet there's still potential to add your own style by updating the kitchen or bathroom, or by extending the back deck and creating an entertaining area in the large backyard.

There's leafy, green-hued views from the wrap-around front verandah (complete with picket fence) across to the Candelo Creek. This pleasant outlook is also visible from the large main sitting room where there's a wood heater, reverse-cycle air-conditioner and ceiling fan for year-round comfort. The property's versatile floor plan offers plenty of flexibility with one bedroom currently used as a home office and another as a second living/play room. Three of the bedrooms have ceiling fans and two have new wool carpet and there's a second reverse-cycle air conditioner in the kitchen. The property has RU5 Village zoning, meaning you have the option of combining business and residential under the same roof.

Outside there are two off-street carparks, including a single carport and an extra-large, fully enclosed level backyard perfect for kids and pets. There's a small back deck which has enormous scope for extending and adding a dedicated outdoor entertaining area. There's huge potential in the whole backyard to add to the existing low maintenance gardens by adding ornamentals, vegetable gardens and more fruit trees. There's a large shed perfect for the mower or a trailer, a second smaller garden shed and an additional secure, lockable storage room off the side verandah. There's also an eight-panel solar system on the roof to help keep electricity bills down

Located a short, level walk to the village hub 'Carlton' is an ideal entry-level home in sought-after Candelo, perfect for a young family or those looking to downsize. The thriving and inviting town of Candelo has plentiful conveniences for such a small rural village, including a popular café, general store, service station, post office and pub. There's also a primary school, pre-school, gym, Olympic-sized swimming pool and beautiful town park. There are numerous opportunities to become part of the community in local groups such as the vibrant Candelo Arts Society, the popular monthly markets and the Rural Fire Brigade. Candelo is ideally located 20 minutes' drive from the regional centre of Bega and the spectacular Sapphire Coast beaches at Tathra, Merimbula and Pambula are all less than 30 minutes' drive.
