1A Britton Street

Privately nestled within its pretty garden this three-bedroom home on 1027 sqm (approx) is located in the tightly held and highly sought-after Greenhill Ave precinct. Known for its vibrant creative community and quiet country feel, the precinct is a short walk to central Castlemaine for retail, restaurants, and the train station to Melbourne or Bendigo. Enter the home from the front verandah through double-frosted glass doors into an open-plan dining with a kitchen. The period kitchen provides a freestanding gas cooktop, a dishwasher, period cabinets, a period woodstove, and a wrap-around bench for casual dining. Adjoining the dining is a front-facing living room with a solid wood heater. To the rear of the home is a north-facing sunroom that makes an ideal second living space or dining room. Overlooking the rear garden, the light and bright space includes a split system, a gas heater, built-in storage, and external access to a deck, perfect for entertaining family and friends or enjoying a quiet coffee and a good book. The period home has two bedrooms, one with built-in robes and the main front-facing bedroom with a split system and ceiling fan. A central bathroom has a shower and vanity, and a second bathroom with a combined laundry has a shower and a separate toilet. The well-presented home includes period details such as ornate plaster, double-hung windows, and pine flooring. The 1027 sqm (approx) property has the potential for subdivision (STCA). The generous grounds are private and quiet, with established trees, hedging, olive trees, raised garden beds, a greenhouse and two water tanks. A large garage provides additional storage, and an adjoining north-facing lined studio with a split system and external access makes for the ideal third bedroom, art studio or home office. This property makes for an escape to the country with all the convenience of town life in a creative community.
