Set on a corner allotment of 581 sqm (approx), this three-bedroom property sits just 450 metres from Castlemaine's train station, with direct services to Melbourne and Bendigo, and 1.1 kilometres from the main street. The daily errands, the Friday evening plans, the Sunday morning coffee: most of them don't require a car.
The home is cream brick, split-level, with a retro sensibility that has held up well. A wide terracotta-tiled verandah runs the length of the front elevation, elevated enough to catch the morning light and sheltered enough to use through most of the year. Inside, the front-facing living room is generous and warm, with a crystal chandelier and ceiling fan that speak to the era. A split system keeps things comfortable, and the space flows through to a separate dining room, also chandelier-lit, with its own calm and proportion.
The kitchen sits beyond a sliding door, finished in a country style with cream-fronted cabinetry, a skylight overhead, and a window to the garden. Freestanding electric cooktop and oven, a dishwasher, and storage in good supply. A laundry with external access and a separate toilet completes this level.
The main bedroom is front-facing and fitted with a full wall of timber built-ins, robes and an integrated dressing table, a detail of real quality. Upstairs, two further bedrooms are both well-proportioned, with large windows that open directly onto a balcony and views across the surrounding landscape. The bathroom retains its original mosaic floor tiles and subway-tiled bath surround, alongside a period vanity and separate shower. A separate toilet is also on this level.
To the rear, a concrete entertaining area with side access and a low-maintenance garden round out a practical and liveable package. Double garage under the roofline. External blinds throughout.
Solid brick, split-level, unmistakably of its era, and in a location that genuinely delivers.
