Last Listing description (December 2022)
Transcending the centuries
Designed by Bendigo-born architect William Beebe circa 1895, this classic Victorian home was created for local man-of-means and butcher Edward Hands.
Beebe lavished his meticulous charm and skill on the Bendigo Boom style, adorning the facade with matching decorative gables, triple windows, tuck-pointed brickwork with intricate iron lacework, fluted steel pillars and a tessellated tiled floor to the return verandah.
Faithfully restored and extended with a healthy dose of modernity, the residence retains an abundance of original features successfully blended for flexible family functionality.
Polished timber floors, 14 ft ceilings with elaborate cornice, ceiling roses and plaster pediments over the doors, marble and cast iron fireplaces and a box bay window in the lounge are some of the standout features.
Generous accommodation includes four bedrooms, a study and an elegant lounge with an arched area suitable for formal dining or the grand piano.
The main bedroom suite boasts an open fireplace, a walk-in-robe and ensuite; two bedrooms have built-ins, while the fourth enjoys access to the return verandah.
