Set behind a white picket fence on a generous 749sqm (approx) allotment, this beautifully presented weatherboard home pairs period character with everyday practicality. North-facing to the front, the garden looks out over the West End tennis courts, playground and Community Hall, with the Charles Street Children's Playground at the end of the street.
Step inside to black floorboards running through the light-filled living zones. The north-facing lounge is generous and bright, warmed by a large window and split system, and flows through to the adjoining kitchen and dining area. The country-style kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with a gas cooktop, undermount oven and dishwasher, all while retaining the home's original charm.
Three bedrooms offer flexibility for families, professionals or downsizers. The main is a spacious front-facing room with its own split system. The second bedroom includes an ensuite with shower, vanity and toilet, plus a split system of its own. A third bedroom sits to the rear, complete with a split system, and works equally well as a home office, nursery or playroom. An updated bathroom with shower over bath, vanity and toilet services the home, and a rear laundry offers convenient external access to the backyard.
Period details are preserved throughout, including ornate ceiling plasterwork, double-hung windows and retro light fittings, giving the home genuine character in a move-in-ready package.
Outside, the fully fenced backyard is low-maintenance and full of potential, with a garage, a shed and plenty of room to extend (STCA) or create the garden of your choosing.
Positioned an easy walk to the Castlemaine Botanical Gardens, The Mill complex and Castlemaine train station for direct access to Melbourne and Bendigo, and just 1.41km to central Castlemaine, this is an ideal opportunity for first home buyers or investors alike.
