In the thriving village of Newstead, just 15 minutes from Castlemaine and 10 from Maldon, this circa 1958 home has been carefully transformed into a modern family retreat. Positioned on a generous 1012m2 allotment, it's an address where convenience and community meet, an easy stroll to the local primary school, kindergarten, shops and café.
Behind its classic façade, the home reveals a thoughtful renovation where mid-century character and contemporary design work in harmony. Light and space define the interiors: three generous bedrooms, a living area anchored by a wood fire and expansive window to the garden, and a second family room that flows seamlessly to an elevated deck for relaxed entertaining.
Defined by clean lines and natural textures, the kitchen combines black cabinetry, timber benchtops and Miele appliances, with north-facing light spilling in over views to the leafy side garden. Pressed metal ceilings, polished timber floors, and oversized windows are reminders of the home's 1950s origins, while modern updates- evaporative cooling, two reverse cycle air conditioners, some double glazing, and NBN- deliver everyday ease.
Everyday living is supported by a sleek family bathroom with separate bath and shower, alongside a large laundry, and a second toilet- spaces designed for both practicality and comfort.
Outdoors, the landscaped garden is both productive and playful: fruit trees, veggie beds, native plantings, and wide open space for children to run. Secure garaging, additional carport and a quiet, tree-lined setting complete the picture.
Here, in the heart of Newstead, village life thrives-school drop-offs are a short walk, morning coffee is just around the corner, and Castlemaine's culture and rail links are only minutes away. A home reborn, ready for a new generation to enjoy.
