4 Carpenter Street BENDIGO VIC

Situated in a commanding position high on sought-after Carpenter Street is this beautiful Red Brick Victorian home just walking distance to Bendigo’s CBD awaiting its new owners. The home is in excellent order inside and out, boasting most of its original features with some modern conveniences and a fully landscaped and private back yard. Encased by the brick fence and retaining walls, the grand staircase leads up to the front veranda which has Easterly views, timber floor and sun blinds. Inside, all three bedrooms have picture rails, weighted timber sash leadlight windows, open fire places with feature mantels and Baltic Pine timber floorboards; the main also features a lovely timber display cabinet. Handy to all bedrooms is the family bathroom which has retained its charm, but is modern with pedestal basin, deep bath with shower and a toilet. Further down the beautiful passage is the dining room (or second living space) with open fire and mantel and the most amazing inset ceiling rose with ornate hand painted intricate patterned cornice. Adjacent is the kitchen which has views to the back yard, boasts a large sink, gas upright cooker and a wood stove, plenty of bench space and timber cabinetry; there is a large island bench which could make room for a table, and for wine lovers there is a cellar with access from the kitchen floor; it would also make for great storage. The second living space is carpeted and has a sliding door leading out to the back yard. Outside is private, peaceful and tranquil, it is hard to believe you are in the middle of town – there’s a private paved and covered sitting/outdoor area protected by a lovely Wisteria and Weeping Cherry tree, further on is a wonderful fountain, there is a garden shed and the double carport is adjacent which has side access from Percival Street. Simply a beautiful charming home in a super central location with plenty of character and history…
