Join the movement to re-vamp North Bendigo’s mid-century neighbourhoods. Take a drive around the streets just beyond Lake Weeroona to find many of the homes being re-imagined for life in the 2020s. It’s easy to see the potential of 10 Edwin Street to join the ranks. The address is an easy stroll down to the lake, as well as the Fox and Giraffe café and the Tysons Reef Hotel. The Bendigo Hospital is a few minutes’ drive away, and the heart of town not much further. The weatherboard house sits on a 564m2 block, with clear side vehicle access through to the backyard. Yes, the bones are here for development or extension, subject to council approval. As it stands, the home is ready for your attention. Although, while externally clearly showing the wear and tear of decades past, it’s still completely comfortable as is. The ceilings are higher than average, there’s some sweet decorative cornice and an original cream brick chimney. The front door opens to a spacious loungeroom with contemporary timber flooring and a ceiling fan. An archway leads to the air-conditioned kitchen/dining space. In almost-original condition, the kitchen has banks of retro timber cabinets that reach to the ceiling and an aluminium-edged Laminex benchtop. A gas upright stove nestles in a tiled alcove. Two of the three bedrooms have built-in-robes. The three-piece bathroom is functional. Look beyond what’s on paper and peer into the future; whether that’s securing your first home, your next flip or adding to your investment portfolio.
