This is a home to grow into. The four-bedroom brick design sits on a 640sqm (approx.) allotment in McKenzie Hill, with space for family dinners, quiet evenings and weekends in the garden. It is new from the first step inside. Castlemaine is only six minutes away.
Inside, the home opens up in front of you. The kitchen, dining and living area runs the full depth of the house. Natural light comes in from two directions, the floors are tiled, and the space is easy to arrange around the way you live.
The kitchen is made for gathering. A stone island bench seats the family for breakfast, with the double sink and dishwasher built in. Along the main wall are a 900mm induction cooktop and an under-mount oven, set below timber-look cabinetry and a penny round tile splashback. A long window above the benchtop looks out to the trees. The walk-in pantry takes care of the groceries, and a study nook nearby suits homework, bills and everything in between.
Two sets of sliding doors lead outdoors. One opens to the alfresco, where downlights and a covered roof make it usable in most weather. It looks over the back garden and takes in views across the area, so it is an easy place for a long lunch or a quiet coffee.
The bedrooms are arranged for comfort and privacy. The main bedroom sits at the front of the home with a walk-in robe and an ensuite. The theatre room is set on its own, so movie nights do not reach the bedrooms. The three further bedrooms each have a built-in robe. The main bathroom includes a bath, a shower and a vanity, with a separate toilet, and the laundry has space for linen. Ducted split system heating and cooling looks after every room year round.
The home is 156sqm (approx.), with a 34sqm double garage that is secure and has both internal and external access. Gravel runs down the side of the block and suits a trailer or caravan. The garden is landscaped, with rock walling, mulched beds and a lawn that is already established.
McKenzie Hill sits on the edge of Castlemaine. Schools are close by, and Castlemaine station connects with V/Line services to Bendigo and Melbourne. Bendigo is also about 35 minutes by road.
Families will appreciate the space and the practical layout. Downsizers will like that it is a single-level home with nothing left to do. Either way, it is ready for its first owners.
