Overview

Perched above the historic township of Maldon, this circa 1890 weatherboard residence offers a rare blend of period charm and contemporary enhancements, set on a sloping 1017sqm allotment that captures sweeping views towards Mt Tarrangower.

The home’s evocative double-fronted facade and lacework verandah provide a warm welcome that is matched inside by high ceilings and a wide hallway, leading to a generous living room anchored by a slow combustion fire and custom timber bookcases. The recent repainting freshens the interiors while preserving the home’s vintage character.

The country-style kitchen harmoniously combines heritage elements with modern appliances, including shaker cabinetry, a spacious island bench, walk-in pantry, and new 90cm electric oven and induction cooktop, catering well for family cooking and entertaining. Adjacent, the elevated dining room is bathed in natural light and opens through French doors to alfresco decking overlooking beautifully maintained gardens, enhancing the connection between indoor and outdoor living. A split-system air conditioner ensures comfort throughout the year.

Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged with two queen-sized bedrooms upstairs, one with direct access to the verandah, complemented by a renovated bathroom featuring a clawfoot bath and classic subway tiling. The property’s versatility extends to a separately accessed lower level with flexible living or bedroom space, bathroom, and laundry facilities, ideal for guests, studio use, or potential independent accommodation.

The extensive landscaped grounds include retaining walls, gravel pathways, staircases, established roses, and fruit trees, creating a picturesque setting that balances privacy with charm. Conveniently located moments from Maldon’s primary school, swimming pool, sporting grounds, and historic café and shopping strip, the residence offers a lifestyle that blends village ambiance with accessibility to regional centres such as Castlemaine (15 minutes) and Bendigo (25 minutes).
