The suburban weatherboard has been taken to a whole new level with this gorgeous Flora Hill home. It really does set the standard for the reimaging of a much-loved neighbourhood. Take a slow drive around these city central blocks and you'll find many of the 1950s and '60s homes are being renovated with some much-deserved love and attention. And there's been a whole lot lavished on this house, from the letterbox to the firepit and every space in between.
Twin ornamental trees welcome you home. From here, take the wide timber steps to the front porch; a cute spot to greet the neighbours over morning coffee. From the entrance, a large front lounge room has pale blonde polished floorboards, bringing cool Scandi style to the space. The dining/kitchen has shining white floor tiles complimenting the white kitchen, with its waterfall benchtop, glass splashback, corner pantry and modern appliances.
Beyond the kitchen is a fantastic use of space in the study nook. Hidden behind closed doors after hours, it has a built-in desk and shelves to keep you organised. The three bedrooms with built-in-robes all have large picture windows to let in the light. A sparkling four-piece bathroom is simply stunning. Plus, there's a second loo in the rear laundry.
Outside, you've got an undercover entertainment space, with a gabled roof. Neat paths lead to the backyard garage, with concrete floor and power. It's situated behind a four-car carport off Hammer Street. Amazing. Ducted heating, evaporative cooling and ceiling fans further bring this home into the here and now.
What's not changed is a solid location that's always in demand, within walking distance to Bendigo South East College and La Trobe University. Honestly, what more could you want? Enjoy the hard work and superb design choices of the vendors. All you need to do is love this one, and how easy is that!
