37 Victoria Street

Eaglehawk VIC 3556

Number 37 Victoria Street, Eaglehawk dates back to the early 1900s when it was a makeshift store selling hardware and basic supplies; folklore would have it that where the large front bedroom now sits it was a chicken hatchery. Hayman as it was known has evolved into a unique and comfortable home set on a well cared for, low maintenance block.

The home itself is a short walk to Lake Neangar and the shops. It has five bedrooms, one of them being a self contained bungalow plus there are two bathrooms but my favourite area is the side decked area that collects the sun in the mornings and overlooks a secret garden with a calming water feature.

The hub of the home is always the kitchen and this one has plenty of bench space plus potential to add more. There is room for a large fridge and plumbing within the cabinetry for a dishwasher. Overlooking the main lounge, it is cosy and comfortable with a convenient gas log fire and a practical heat exchange vent moving warm air to the front rooms. With improvements over the years, the addition of a second bathroom in conjunction with a thoughtful floor plan relating to the bungalow has seen it be utlised as a self contained Air B&B removed from the main home. This feature and also the solar panels on the roof achieving a 28 cent tariff has made this home great for self sufficiency.
