Welcome to 'Gold & Grain' - an exceptional and historically significant property that occupies a commanding position on Broadway, Dunolly. The property is a superbly restored and renovated solid brick residence that has a history and life that adds to the rich ambience that has gone before of what is now a superbly presented three-bedroom family home. But this is so much more than a family home as so many of you know if you were fortunate enough to visit the property when it was operating as the Gold & Grain cafe restaurant.
As we present the property today, we find a fabulous home that speaks of quality with an undeniable ambience of the 'good life'. There are three bedrooms, the main being quite decadent with its own adjoining lounge/parlour room, a huge walk-in robe and a separate powder room. This part of the home also has a separate entrance and an outdoor deck area, further providing for the opportunity for a dual occupancy or a B&B (STCA). But of course there's also the possibility to return this front area to retail or a cafe restaurant again. The plumbing for the commercial kitchen is still in situ as are many other features. Opportunities are abundant here.
As we stand, the property boasts extensive living areas both inside and out, with three separate living areas within the home, and three unsurpassed outdoor living areas including the large rear decked area, a fabulous undercover BBQ area and the beautifully protected front verandah and deck area. To say you're spoiled for choice is an understatement.
The home also has an excellent kitchen with both gas cooking and a freestanding solid combustion stove, loads of storage, good bench space and dishwasher. The adjoining dining area will cater for a very large dining table, just perfect for entertaining family and friends. We have two separate lounge areas, both with solid fuel heaters and split system heat and cooling. The centrally located family bathroom has recently been totally refurbished and also houses the European style hideaway laundry. There are two separate toilets at the property.
Outside, we find a seriously interesting, quirky and significant red brick shed/stable structure at the rear of the property - another opportunity to develop into whatever your heart desires. There's also an adjacent 5m x 4.8 m lockup shed with an undercover area between the two structures. And with good rear access from Inkerman Street, you will have plenty of room to store your caravan, boat or whatever. The overall size of the allotment is well over 1500 square metres, with a private rear garden area that's a sanctuary from the world with established shade trees, a good lawned area and countless sitting areas. All of this is securely fenced and perfect for the furry family members.
The property has been thoughtfully fitted with quality shade blinds and a secure roller shutter on the large front window. All the fixture and fittings throughout the property are of a discernible quality.
Of note is that even though this is a significant and historic property for Dunolly, it doesn't have a Heritage overlay. If you are looking for your 'forever home' but with scope for opportunities yet to be realised, then this is a definite for you to come and view.
