This elevated three-bedroom California Bungalow circa 1930s has the most beautiful easterly views over the township of Castlemaine, towards the historic Post Office Tower, Kalimna Park and Mount Alexander. The property is well positioned and only a short walk to town for retail and amenities, the train station, schools, the Mill Complex and the Botanical Gardens.
The period home features an entry from the front porch into the living room with a freestanding gas heater and a split system. The kitchen with dining provides a gas cooktop with an under-mount oven, and period cabinets. The main bedroom is front-facing with an original brick fireplace surround, ornate plasterwork and a ceiling fan. Of the two further bedrooms, one is north-facing, and the second has a stunning view over Castlemaine. Completing the floorplan is an updated bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles, a shower, a vanity and built-in storage. A laundry has a separate toilet. Updates include an integrated solar system and period details consisting of timber flooring, high ceilings with ornate plasterwork and double-hung windows.
A driveway leads to a 5.1m x 4.4m double carport, and the fully fenced back garden features a 5.9m x 3m garage, an enclosed veggie garden with kiwi fruit, apple and feijoa trees, a chicken pen and a low maintenance garden with established trees.
With the borrowed landscape of neighbouring oak and gum trees, this property offers the opportunity to enhance and update its period charm by taking advantage of the stunning view of Castlemaine and the surrounding landscape. Make this your home with a view.
