Brimming with the charm of Ormond's interwar golden age, this 3-bedroom, 2-lounge California Bungalow delivers beautiful original and late-century character that's primed and ready for its next iteration of life. The bones are incredible, with high ceilings, a fireplace, and beautiful space and natural light in all the places that matter, transforming completely what this home and its complementing lifestyle can offer.
Its street presence alone earns a second glance, with its red brick form and low-pitched gabled roof charming with its characteristic broad overhang, decorative timber bargeboards, and covered front verandah. A step inside reveals immediate occasion beneath 10ft ceilings and polished parquetry floors, carrying beyond a procession of large bedrooms and a formal fireside lounge that connects to the main bedroom.
An open-plan extension to the rear unfolds into skylit living and dining spaces that feel like an entirely different world, with brilliant northern light flooding in through expansive windows and reaching deep into a timber-topped kitchen. Three skylights further illuminate its peachy cabinetry and its abundant potential, ready for its next iteration whenever the moment calls. A wraparound vine-draped deck looks over a backyard that makes the imagination run deep and private, yet entirely in keeping with the scale of a home like this.
A bathroom/laundry combination with external access and an additional toilet adds flexibility, perfect if you were to renovate with a new pool (STCA), with a powder room, ducted heating, split-system air conditioning, a single garage and a storage shed round out its finishing appointments. The location is outstanding, with Ormond Station and village shops at the end of the street, McKinnon Village, Ormond Primary and Joyce Park an easy walk, and the prized McKinnon Secondary just moments away.
The Ormond character you know and love. Opportunities like this do not linger!
