There are very few homes in the Bendigo Retirement Village that have a large fenced yard. This is one of those rare precious gems. A very pretty Victorian inspired red and yellow brick home is what is on offer here. What makes this one so special is not only that it is on the same stretch as the village centre, or that it is a freestanding house, but that it was not built by the village, rather it was acquired and absorbed into the village at a later date, which means that the new owner gets to enjoy all of the benefits of village life in the comfort and privacy of a fully fenced yard of over 500 square metres.

Freshly painted throughout and with new berber carpets, this is a very comfortable and functional home. Three bedrooms all have built-in-robes while the master has direct ensuite style access to the three piece return bathroom with a separate shower, equipped with a hand held shower-head, bath, and vanity with good cupboard space. Nearby is a separate toilet, as is ideal and the second bedroom is close and handy. The bathroom and toilet both have removable doors and handrails are there if you like to use them. A separate laundry means you can close the door when you have visitors.

The carpeted lounge at the front of the house is where you will welcome guests, it has a gas heater and evaporative cooling is ducted throughout to ensure your comfort. For less formal visitors like family and close friends, you are likely to take them through to the vinyl plank open plan living space with a large carpet mat in the sitting area and room for your dining suite alongside the kitchen. This lovely space has large picture windows so you can thoroughly enjoy the garden even if it’s cool outside. Good quality window furnishings complete the look. The kitchen is the perfect size for food preparation with good bench-space and everything within easy reach. It has an upright gas stove and a drawer storage system within many of the cupboards.

Just outside the backdoor is a paved pergola under laserlite for alfresco entertainment, enjoy your morning tea and your garden with the birds. Speaking of which, the garden is well established and beautiful. You can tuck away all your tools in the garden shed and pets or grandchildren can play safely together or separately in the fully fenced front or backyard.

Other noteworthy attributes are a carport with a remote roller door, which could easily be enclosed, a driveway car-park before this, new double insulation in the roof, a 9 panel solar system to reduce living costs, NBN internet connection, and DVA fitted ramps for both the front and back door. Not to mention all the benefits of living in the Bendigo Retirement Village with its own Post Office and village centre to which you have your own key.

The village has a really welcoming community, an on-site chef, many interest groups and activities that you are welcome to take advantage of if you like, its own bus and golf buggy, and a 24 hour response personal alarm system which provides you and your family peace of mind as it extends your independence. There is too much more to list but you are invited to call the agent for a chat or to arrange an inspection. She would love to hear from you.
Properties in the village are available exclusively to over 55′s and a separate contract is to be signed with the village.
