Overview

Set on a manageable 929 square metre lot in a peaceful cul-de-sac, this solid brick home built in the 1930s combines timeless country charm with practical living space. The property enjoys a captivating outlook over neighbouring farmland and established gum trees, offering a tranquil semi-rural lifestyle just a short distance from the Castlemaine railway station.

The residence retains much of its original character and period detailing, including pine timber floors, ornate ceilings, and a wide central hallway that divides four spacious rooms. These rooms, currently bedrooms, could be easily adapted as living areas, studies, or sitting rooms to suit varying family needs or work-from-home arrangements.

  • Spacious living area features a wood fire and direct access to a classic return verandah, creating inviting indoor-outdoor flow for relaxation and entertaining.
  • The country-style kitchen is functional and welcoming, offering tiled flooring and ample room for convivial cooking experiences.
  • Additional versatile spaces include a generously proportioned games room or studio, perfect for hobbies, entertaining, or productive workspace away from the main living areas.
  • The property also presents remnants of an early mudbrick cottage, now used as shedding with charming features such as an open fireplace and pine-lined ceiling, adding historical interest and character.
  • External amenities include a traditional bathroom with period features, a separate old-world laundry, a separate toilet, and further sheds providing extra storage and utility options.

With its blend of heritage charm and adaptable spaces for modern living, this home suits buyers seeking a country lifestyle with character, functional indoor and outdoor areas, and the convenience of proximity to town facilities. The garden setting, established trees, and open lawns enhance the private, peaceful ambiance making it an appealing opportunity to renovate and personalise.
