Set on an expansive allotment of approximately 5,600m², this character-filled property offers an increasingly difficult combination to find - a substantial parcel of land, an established home and extensive shedding, all within the Lismore township.
Predominantly weatherboard in construction, the home retains plenty of its original country character, with timber-lined rooms, high ceilings and multiple fireplaces providing a glimpse of what could be achieved with further improvement. Importantly, the home has also benefited from some practical upgrades over the years, including a more recently replaced Colorbond roof and guttering and an updated, functional kitchen with generous bench space and storage.
The flexible floorplan provides several options depending on individual requirements. There is potential to utilise the home as four bedrooms with a central living area, or alternatively three bedrooms with two separate living spaces. An enclosed sunroom takes advantage of the garden outlook and provides another useful area within the home, while the external laundry reflects the property's traditional country configuration. The bathroom remains functional, with opportunity for further updating over time.
Outside, the scale of the allotment is a genuine feature. Established trees and gardens surround the home, while the balance of the block provides an abundance of open space with room for pets, gardens, poultry or simply the freedom that comes with having well over an acre at your disposal.
An extensive collection of sheds and outbuildings is spread across the property, ranging in age and condition and offering useful storage and workshop possibilities. Existing former dog runs could also be readily adapted for poultry, animal enclosures or additional storage depending on the requirements of the new owner.
Adding further to the property's open feel is approximately 2,000m²; of adjoining unmade road reserve or Crown land that has historically been utilised by the current owners. This land does not form part of the property's approximately 5,600m²; title area, and purchasers should make their own enquiries regarding its status and future use.
Lismore provides the appeal of a genuine Western District country community with everyday conveniences close at hand. The township offers shopping, schooling, healthcare and sporting facilities, while nearby Lake Tooliorook provides a popular local destination for fishing, boating and recreation. Camperdown, Colac and Ballarat are also accessible for broader services and employment.
