Overview

Timeless Character and Grand Proportions on Pakington Street's Doorstep!

Beyond its charm and classic façade, this 1914 former Anzac residence reveals a home of remarkable scale, warmth, and enduring appeal where heritage detail and contemporary comfort exist in quiet harmony. Set within one of Geelong West's most walkable and tightly held streets, it offers a lifestyle defined by character, connection, and everyday ease. Soaring 12-foot ceilings immediately establish a sense of volume and light, while rich timber panelling and original fireplaces speak to the home's history and craftsmanship. The traditional proportions are unexpectedly generous, with expansive rooms creating a feeling of grandeur rarely found in homes of this era. These beautiful spaces invite both intimate living and larger gatherings, adapting effortlessly to the rhythm of daily life. At the rear, modern updates have been thoughtfully introduced to support contemporary living. The kitchen is both practical and welcoming, illuminated by a skylight and appointed with new quality appliances, extensive storage and a breakfast bar that naturally becomes the centre of conversation. Open plan living and dining extend to a covered alfresco deck and paved courtyard, this outdoor area is designed for long lunches, quiet mornings and relaxed entertaining. Year-round comfort is ensured with reverse cycle heating and cooling. A large shed with integrated laundry provides exceptional utility, and the dual street access from Yuille Street introduces flexibility for the future, including scope for a double garage (STCA) on the substantial allotment. The location is as compelling as the home itself. Just a few doors from vibrant 'Pako' (Pakington Street), the neighbourhood's celebrated cafés, wine bars, providores and everyday essentials are quite literally at the end of the street. Woolworths, the Geelong station, and Shannon Avenue's retail hub are all within easy walking distance, while Sparrow Park's open green spaces and playground offer a natural extension of the home for families and those who value an active, outdoor lifestyle. Rich in story, generous in scale and perfectly positioned, this is a residence that honours its past while embracing the ease of modern living, an address of lasting appeal in one of Geelong West's most cherished pockets.
