Overview

Timeless Character, Inner-City Lifestyle

Perfectly positioned in Quarry Hill on the residential fringe of the CBD, this heritage home is just a 200m walk from Bendigo Railway Station and a further 100m from Bendigo Marketplace, placing transport and shopping within effortless reach. The original 1900s portion of the home has been rewired and restumped, while the rear extension was built in 2019 by Yarrington Constructions, creating a seamless blend of Victorian character and quality modern living. Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged with three well sized bedrooms, each reflecting the home's timeless character. High timber lined ceilings flow throughout, with original fireplaces enhancing the front two bedrooms and a striking exposed brick wall adding warmth and individuality to the third. These spaces are versatile, suited to families, professionals or those seeking work from home flexibility. The transition into the modern extension creates a striking contrast while maintaining tonal cohesion, with the open plan kitchen, dining and living area forming the true heart of the home. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with a 900mm freestanding gas cooker, generous stone topped island bench, quality finishes and excellent storage, delivering light filled contemporary living without compromising character. Split system heating and cooling has been installed to keep the home comfortable year-round. Outside, the low maintenance yard offers space for off street parking via the rear carriageway (accessed from Gladstone Street), along with plenty of on street parking at the front. Directly opposite Palmerston Square Playground, the South Bendigo Bowls Club and the Quarry Hill Croquet Club, and with restaurants and shopping on your doorstep, the home is ideal for those seeking an active inner-city lifestyle without the upkeep of a large yard. Currently leased to excellent long-term renters.
