Set within one of Kyneton's oldest and most tightly held streets, this beautifully charming home offers a rare sense of warmth, history and connection, just moments from the town's cafes, restaurants, schools and everyday conveniences.
Originally built in the 1920s as the Salvation Army Quarters and known as 'Malakuna', the home carries a rich local story, with freestone sourced from the original Lauriston quarry. From the sandstone facade through to the soaring oak tree that anchors the rear garden, there is an undeniable sense of character and soul that flows throughout the property.
Beyond the classic central hallway, the home unfolds with high ceilings, generous proportions and a comforting simplicity that feels immediately welcoming. Three well sized bedrooms are complemented by a light filled sitting room, while the expansive open plan kitchen, meals and family area forms the true heart of the home. Beautifully grounded by a striking stone feature wall, this space is both functional and inviting, designed for everyday living and gathering alike.
The kitchen offers excellent bench space along with gas and electric cooking and a dishwasher, while split system heating and cooling adds comfort through the seasons.
To the rear, the enclosed backyard feels wonderfully private and established, framed by mature gardens and the magnificent oak tree overhead. A separate rear studio provides further flexibility, complete with a bedroom, bathroom, sitting area and split system, ideal for guests, creative use or additional accommodation.
Rich in heritage charm yet wonderfully comfortable as it stands, this is a home with genuine heart, where history, character and lifestyle come together in one of Kyneton's most treasured locations.
