Set high and proud on Kyneton's most photographed stretch, 'Piper & Powlett' is a classic California bungalow that commands attention. The dark grey exterior contrasts beautifully against the red brick decked verandah - a head-turning first impression beside the much loved tourism wall.
Step inside to a wide, welcoming hall and all the period touchpoints are present: decorative ceilings, panelled glass doors, stained glass, picture rails and timber floors. The front bedroom draws in light from morning to late afternoon via a circular north facing bay window. There are 3 generous bedrooms (2 with robes) and 2 bathrooms - an ensuite plus a dramatic rear bathroom with pedestal basin and a show-stopping platform bath.
The living room is anchored by the original working fireplace and a graceful box bay window. Year round comfort is easy with 2 air conditioners and full ceiling insulation. The kitchen is practical and neat with a gas oven and dishwasher. A separate laundry and mudroom entry keep the day-to-day running smoothly.
Outside, the garden is beautifully resolved: brick-paved paths, a charming arbour with ornamental grape, established pears, smoke bush and classic roses. Rear access via a ROW gives you off-street parking - a rare advantage in this blue chip, 'walk everywhere' location.
