North Bendigo VIC 3550

The original early 1980s family home set on approx. 3,360 sq metres offers the ultimate family flexibility and is ready for its next chapter.

The one-owner home designed to follow the land contours exhibits architectural details typical of the era with bold shapes and generous proportions encompassing six bedrooms, three bathrooms and multiple living spaces.
