A classic weatherboard cottage on a generous 587sqm (approx) block, this property delivers the character and street presence of a period home with the comfort of considered contemporary updates.
The white picket fence and cottage garden set the tone from the street. Inside, period frosted-glass double doors open into the north-facing living room. Double-hung timber windows overlook the garden, a Nectre solid wood heater sits at the room's centre, and a split system handles the warmer months.
The main bedroom faces north, sharing the same garden outlook and timber window detail, with original floorboards and a split system. The second bedroom includes built-in robes, a split system, and its own ensuite with laundry facilities, shower, vanity, toilet, and external access directly to the rear deck. A practical configuration that suits guest accommodation or a home office setup with separation.
A second, fully updated bathroom serves the main living areas: walk-in shower, double basin vanity, freestanding bath, floor-to-ceiling tiles, and a separate toilet.
To the rear, the open-plan kitchen and dining extend the living footprint considerably. A walk-in pantry, wrap-around bench for casual dining, gas cooktop, wall oven, and dishwasher. Double-glazed double doors open to the rear deck, a sheltered, year-round entertaining area that looks over raised vegetable gardens and established fruit trees. The double garage completes the offering.
Within walking distance of Campbells Creek Primary School, the park and playground, the bowls club, the post office, the Five Flags Merchants café, and the Five Flags Hotel. A short drive into Castlemaine for the full range of services, shops, and the train line connecting to Melbourne and Bendigo.
An ideal first home or investment property in a well-connected, community-minded neighbourhood.
