Privately nestled on an elevated 1568sqm (approx) allotment, this much-loved family home has been held with care and affection for decades. It is a place where generations have gathered, gardens have flourished, and memories have been made. With its early 1980s design, generous proportions, and breathtaking views across Castlemaine, it offers an opportunity to secure a home filled with warmth, character, and possibility, all just 500m from the heart of town.
The two-level layout is spacious and flexible, designed to adapt to the rhythm of family life. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and dining zone has seen countless shared meals and conversations. A walk-in pantry, double wall oven, and electric cooktop make everyday cooking a pleasure, while the wraparound bench invites casual dining and connection. Two generous living areas, one formal, one relaxed, offer space to unwind, entertain, and enjoy the leafy surrounds.
The main bedroom suite features a walk-in robe and ensuite, while three additional bedrooms include built-in robes and garden outlooks. A fifth bedroom adds versatility, perfect for guests, a home office, or a creative space.
Internal stairs lead to the lower level, where a large rumpus room with its own shower and toilet offers a flexible retreat for teenagers, guests, or multigenerational living. Also on this level is the unique inground swimming pool, opening to the front garden, a feature that has brought joy across generations and seasons. A cellar and under-house storage space provide practical solutions for wine, tools, or seasonal items.
Outside, the garden is a true sanctuary. Lovingly established and tended, it bursts with ornamental trees, rhododendrons, camellias, peony roses, and spring blossoms. A north-facing courtyard offers a sunny spot to relax, while water tanks, a watering system, and a two-car carport add practicality to the beauty.
Comfort is assured year-round with ducted heating and cooling, and the elevated front verandah captures spectacular views over Castlemaine and out to the surrounding bushland, a daily reminder of the home's peaceful position and connection to nature.
With driveway access via Lyttleton Street, the home is tucked away yet just moments from Castlemaine's cafes, shops, schools, and train station. It is also within walking distance of Kalimna Park, offering bushwalks and mountain bike trails right at your doorstep.
This is more than a house; it is a home filled with heart, ready to welcome its next chapter.
