Overview

The wood fire wasn't even on. You could still feel it.

Some homes do the welcoming for you. This one starts at the street fresh white weatherboard, a black front door, a new timber deck and verandah that already feels like the spot for slow Saturday mornings. Step inside and the ceilings lift to twelve feet, the rooms open up the way only older homes do, and everything leads you toward the centre: a wood fire, watched over by a kitchen bench built on brick. The kitchen has been updated around it walk-in pantry, electric stove and oven with a sunlit dining nook off to the side where most of life will quietly happen. The main bedroom takes a king with room to spare, the second fits two singles easily, and the study means nobody works at the kitchen table. Through the French-panelled glass door, a deck, a rustic garden setting and open lawn. Freshly painted inside and out, on 659m² on the cusp of the CBD the work is done. What's left is the living. - Twelve-foot ceilings throughout, creating proportions only an older home can offer - Wood fire heater at the centre of the living area, overlooked by the kitchen's brick-based bench - Updated kitchen with walk-in pantry and electric stove and oven - Sunlit dining and sitting area flowing directly from the kitchen - Three generously sized bedrooms plus a dedicated study; the main comfortably takes a king-size bed - Character detail retained throughout, including deep skirting boards approaching twenty centimetres - Updated bathroom with shower and internal toilet, plus a second separate toilet and external laundry with new benchtop under the main roof - French-panelled glass door opening to a rear deck, alcove verandah and open lawn - Drive-through side access to an undercover carport accommodating two vehicles - Evaporative cooling, freshly painted inside and out, all on 659m² on the cusp of the Mildura CBD Section 32 available upon request.
