BENDIGO has such a special relationship with the California Bungalow; it's hard to imagine our inner-city streetscapes without this architectural cornerstone.
This beautifully renovated example not only represents all the best features of the era, but is fully landscaped and close to the CBD.
Nestled behind a tall picket fence it's bay window, enclosed verandah and wooden pillars all paint a welcoming picture.
A quality and tasteful renovation, there are tiled floors in all the traffic areas, new carpets in the lounge and bedrooms, and fresh paintwork throughout.
The main bedroom draws lots of light from the bay window with its lovely day seat, and has its own reverse-cycle split-system. Across the hallway the formal lounge room has a solid-fuel heater built into the original fireplace, and a wall-mounted air-conditioner. The decorative ceiling and cornices are just stunning.
New cabinetry and bench tops are just some of the features in the renovated kitchen that also has a new electric upright stove and stainless steel dishwasher. There's space for a large dining setting, and warmth provided by a gas heater.
Bedroom two has a built-in wardrobe and feature open fireplace with a RCSS, while a large third bedroom at the back of the home could also be utilised as an office or studio which also has a RCSS. Off here is also a universal space that can be used as a study reading area with direct access to the outside deck.
Living space is enhanced by a covered rear deck of almost 25 square metres with decorative timber panels for privacy.
With covered off-street parking and proximity to View Street, this home is ready to move in and enjoy.
