A beautiful expression of period charm and contemporary comfort, this captivating 1930s Californian Bungalow offers a rare sense of space, privacy and versatility in an exceptional inner-city setting.
From its distinctive curved porch and leadlight bay windows to the classic stucco façade, the home makes an immediate impression. Beyond the entrance, a thoughtfully updated interior retains the warmth and character of its era while delivering the comfort and functionality expected of modern living.
Three generous bedrooms provide excellent flexibility, with the spacious front room featuring custom cabinetry and built-in shelving. Its position and proportions also make it ideal as an additional living space or home office with a layout that allows work and home life to remain comfortably separate.
The heart of the home is the generous kitchen, dining and family zone, where abundant storage and bench space are complemented by a 900mm freestanding cooker, dishwasher and double-door pantry. An enclosed sunroom extends the living space further, capturing natural light and peaceful views across the established garden.
Two bathrooms add everyday practicality, while ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, ceiling fans and a 5.4kW solar system enhance year-round comfort and efficiency. Extensive acoustic improvements, including double and triple glazing, electric shutters and upgraded door seals, create an impressive sense of calm despite the home's central position.
Outside, the established gardens form a private and leafy retreat. A wide driveway extends to the rear garage/shed and provides outstanding off-street parking for up to six vehicles – a particularly rare advantage this close to the city centre.
The address places an incredible selection of Bendigo's attractions within approximately one kilometre, including the CBD, Bendigo Hospital, Rosalind Park, the Arts Precinct, Bendigo Chinese Gardens, Lake Weeroona and an array of renowned cafés, restaurants and pubs.
