A tranquil edge of town location and the backdrop of Mt Tarrangower Reserve deliver the perfect setting for this solidly built 1960s era weatherboard family home. On a roomy 4,989 sqm (1.2-acre) allotment, the fully fenced block boasts a coveted north-easterly aspect and gorgeous, elevated views across to Mount Franklin and the ranges. Additionally, the adjoining block of 3,724sqm (3/4-acre) of undulating leasehold crown land, also fully fenced and dotted with native landscape plantings is part of the offering, together comprising just over 2 acres.
Master-built, the home has been designed to maximise its appealing outlook. A short flight of steps leads to an expansive L-shaped front patio ideal for outdoor relaxation and entertainment. Step from the patio into an interior that retains many original features merging seamlessly with updates to deliver the free-flowing lifestyle we enjoy today. Natural light streams in to every room courtesy of feature windows throughout. Polished floorboards and a soft, neutral palette give a warm and inviting ambience. At the home's heart is an open-plan family room with triple aspect and beyond, a large, retro-styled kitchen with loads of cabinetry, bench space, large pantry and an adjoining formal dining room with verandah access.
There are four light and bright bedrooms, three queens and a king premier suite with double aspect views. The family bathroom has been updated to include subway tiles and large vanity with storage plus separate toilet. While offering contemporary relaxed living, there is exciting scope for further renovation and individual touches if desired. Additional features include cosy wood fire heating, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, ceiling fans, carpeted bedrooms, built-in hall storage and linen closet, carport, workshop with concrete floor and studio. Mains power, town water and sewerage are all connected and the home has been recently replumbed.
On a quiet stretch of sealed road, directly accessible from the property are some of Maldon's renowned hikes and notable sites harking back to the days when Maldon was one of the region's leading goldmining towns. The town centre with its array of cafes, specialty stores, school and sporting facilities is within walking distance. Whether as a permanent residence, or a relaxing weekend retreat, this welcoming property is definitely a place you'll want to come home to.
