This beautifully restored and thoughtfully extended residence offers an exceptional lifestyle in the heart of Koroit. Set amongst established gardens on an expansive 3,000m² (approx.) allotment, 129 High Street is sure to capture your heart.
Combining the character of a traditional settler's cottage with the quality and functionality of a modern family home, the residence has been transformed and extended with a sympathetic appreciation for its heritage. The original cottage has been meticulously restored, while a substantial new extension introduces additional bedrooms, a dedicated laundry, practical entry and spacious double garage.
Inside, timber floorboards, high ceilings and crisp white interiors create an inviting sense of warmth and understated elegance. An exposed – currently unused – sandstone fireplace forms a striking centre-piece of the living room, that reflects the home's history while adding beautiful texture and character.
The well-appointed kitchen and dining area provides a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. Featuring a gas top stove, dishwasher, double sink, classic white cabinetry and large pantry, timber-look laminate benchtops, and an abundance of preparation space, the kitchen balances practicality with style.
There are three generously proportioned bedrooms, each complete with built-in storage. With a walk-in robe and ensuite, the master suite provides a private retreat. A pristine family bathroom and separate toilet service the additional bedrooms.
An extensive list of quality inclusions further enhances the home's liveability: hydronic heating, double-glazed windows, ceiling fans, comprehensive insulation and plush carpeting ensure year-round comfort without compromising the residence's heritage character.
Beyond the home, the expansive and private grounds offer an increasingly rare sense of space and tranquility. Established gardens provide a picturesque setting, while the vast double garage with remote access, additional garden shedding and separate studio offer versatility for hobbies, storage, creative pursuits or those seeking additional workspace.
Positioned within the charming township of Koroit, the property enjoys the convenience of being a short walk to Primary Schools, IGA supermarket, Koroit pharmacy, iconic Mickey Bourke’s pub, Stonefield Lane wine bar, Koroit Bowls club and Victoria Park Recreation Reserve, while being ideally situated between the regional centre of Warrnambool and renowned the coastal township of Port Fairy. It is just a short walk to the Port Fairy-to-Warrnambool Rail Trail and restored Koroit Railway Station with its landscaped community picnic and recreational facilities.
The property is Zoned General Residential, permitting an extensive range of uses.
A special offering, where history has been respectfully preserved, modern comforts have been seamlessly introduced, and every detail has been considered to create a home of enduring beauty and appeal.
129 High Street is more than a beautifully renovated cottage — it is a remarkable transformation, offering an exceptional opportunity to enjoy refined country living in one of the region's most charming townships.
