Last Listing description (March 2026)

This truly special residence is a stunning blend of timeless character and thoughtful modern living, set across two levels on an expansive 1,088m allotment with elevated views over Bendigo.
The weatherboard faade, lacework detailing across the verandah and balcony, and leadlight entrance door immediately set the tone for what lies within. The ground floor is split over two levels and showcases exceptional period features including ceiling roses, decorative cornices, four fireplaces, parquetry flooring, Baltic pine boards, and lining board ceilings, all complemented by soaring ceiling heights.

At the front of the home, a formal lounge and library create an elegant retreat, complete with a bay window, built-in bookshelves, and a beautiful fireplace. The dining room is equally impressive, featuring its own fireplace and a large built-in window bench seat beneath a stunning leadlight window that fills the space with warmth and charm. The main part of the home is serviced by evaporative cooling and ducted floor heating.

There are five bedrooms in total, with three located downstairs. Two of the larger bedrooms feature fireplaces, while the third includes an adjoining study or home office, ideal for remote work, a quiet retreat, or even a business. Upstairs, two further bedrooms include the main suite with parquetry flooring, bay window, views, and walk-in wardrobe, along with a shared two-way bathroom functioning as a private ensuite. The second upstairs bedroom includes built-in robes and parquetry flooring. A generous landing upstairs offers a third living area or parents retreat, with French doors opening onto the balcony. This balcony is truly somewhere to sit and ponder the world, enjoy a coffee, or share a glass of wine.

The downstairs bathroom has been recently renovated and offers a modern, light-filled space with a large walk-in shower and niche, floating double timber vanity, toilet, and mirrored storage cabinet, all finished in soft grey tones. An AquaMAX 360 hot water service services the home.

At the rear, a contemporary extension seamlessly connects old and new, forming a light-filled open plan kitchen and living/meals area. The kitchen features white and soft grey tones, subway tiled splashback, induction cooktop, and a 900mm under-mounted oven. A butlers pantry and laundry directly off the kitchen continue the same stylish finish and offer excellent storage. A Daikin reverse cycle split system services this extension.

Outdoor living is well considered with an undercover alfresco area directly off the kitchen and living/meals space. The gardens are established and thoughtfully designed, with winding paths, abundant greenery, raised vegetable beds, and plenty to explore. Additional features include a garden shed, tool shed, water tank, side gate access, full fencing for privacy and security, and a separate outdoor toilet with hand basin.

The double garage includes a workshop and direct internal access to the home, with roller door access into the rear yard adding everyday practicality. Security screens are fitted to all four external doors, and a new 644kw Canadian Solar system installed at the start of this year enhances energy efficiency and reduces running costs.

With its elevated position, captivating views, exceptional character, and seamless modern upgrades, this is a home of rare charm and presence, one that is both impressive and inviting, and truly one of a kind.
