Are you looking for an excellent low maintenance bolt-hole, or one that combines residential and commercial options, all in a sought-after location? Well, look no further! This delightful one bedroom, barn-style cottage on a roomy 434 sqm block at the southern end of Maldon’s High Street commercial precinct offers easy living for singles or couples wanting a lock and leave, investors looking for an excellent rental or BnB property, or a buyer looking to conduct retail or service-related activities. Entry is via a side-access gate to the walkway directly onto High Street with the bonus of rear lane access to Tobin Street for off-street carparking. And with its Commercial Zoning, there’s the exciting opportunity to further extend the current building or develop the site in its entirety (STCA).
Built over two levels and in keeping with Maldon’s goldfields era history, the ground level of the super-cute cottage is constructed of weatherboard while the upper is corrugated iron. A wide, return verandah is also period faithful. At ground level is a light-filled, free-flowing living and dining space with timber-lined walls, exposed beams and pot-belly wood heater for that cosy, country vibe. The light and bright, country-style kitchen is clean, neat and practical with timber benchtops offering ample preparation space and excellent open shelving plus under-counter cabinetry for the storage of all your kitchen items. With its all-white palette and timber detail, the combined bathroom/laundry offers a spacious shower room, pedestal basin, toilet, plenty of cabinetry and shelving and a glass-paneled door leading to a rear patio. A flight of stairs takes you to the generous mezzanine level that would fit a king-size bed. Timber-lined cove ceilings continue the historic theme. The gardens are a mix of lawn and landscaping dotted with trees and shrubbery offering privacy and scope for further plantings if desired. Additional highlights include reverse-cycle air-conditioning, instant gas hot water, garden/storage shed and all town services.
With its array of cafes, specialty stores, services, sporting facilities and location convenient to Castlemaine (15 minutes), and Melbourne (90 minutes) ensures Maldon’s popularity as a permanent address or weekend destination continues to grow. The opportunity to acquire a versatile and low maintenance residence with exciting commercial prospects in a vibrant tourist hot spot is one not to be missed.
