On the edge of historic Maldon, this charming period style weatherboard captures a lovely sense of place, with a picturesque rural outlook and the occasional sight of the steam train making its way through the landscape. It's a home with genuine character, plenty of natural light and the sort of position that lets you enjoy Maldon's village atmosphere while still feeling connected to the countryside.
North facing and filled with natural light, the home opens with an inviting leadlight entrance before revealing the hallmarks of its era, including soaring 10 foot ceilings, decorative cornices and generous proportions throughout. Two well sized bedrooms provide flexibility for family living.
At the heart of the home, the updated galley style kitchen connects with the dining area, creating a practical space for everyday meals and entertaining. The front lounge room space is comfortable and welcoming, with split-system heating and cooling providing year round climate control. The bathroom has been updated with a walk in shower and vanity, plus a second toilet off the laundry adds practicality.
Outside, the private rear garden offers another dimension to the property. A timber entertaining deck and sunroom create a relaxed spot to sit and take in the garden, while the double carport, workshop and additional space provide plenty of practicality for vehicles, hobbies, storage and the inevitable Maldon project.
There's scope here to enjoy the home exactly as it is, while also adding your own touches over time. The combination of period detail, northern light, garden space and a rural outlook makes this a particularly appealing base for those wanting a slice of Maldon life without giving up the comforts of everyday living.
And then there's the steam train - an unmistakable part of Maldon's character and a charming reminder that you're living on the doorstep of one of Central Victoria's most celebrated historic towns.
