The family home is a special place. It’s the stage where our life’s dramas are played out. It’s where families are raised, wisdom is imparted, meals are shared with friends and loved ones; and where we seek peace and quality time. Some of the greatest moments of our lives are enjoyed, and adventures recounted, within the four walls of our homes.

The family home also represents a significant portion of our personal wealth. If we’re clever, it can be a fantastic foundation for further wealth creation. Key to this is location. A great location allows us to create the perfect lifestyle for our families, but also sets us up for the prospect of future capital gain.

It’s said that the ideal location is the combination of the physical location of the property, the character of the suburb, and the proximity of desirable amenities. 7 Broad Parade is a very special location indeed. It’s positioned beside the Bendigo Retirement Village and backs on to One Tree Hill (the Greater Bendigo National Park). Talk about a peaceful and quiet location!

Here you will wake to birdsong, and delight in picturesque views of your neat neighbourhood, and the leafy green environs beyond. You’ll enjoy strolling to the Retreat Road butcher, bakehouse and takeaway; and visiting the very popular One Tree Hill Hotel, and Spring Gully General Store. An abundance of adventure surrounds your family here. Visit the Spring Gully Reservoir, the Rec Reserve, BMX jumps and sports fields.

Join sporting clubs, explore bike and walking trails and delight in the natural surrounds and wildlife. There is great access to the bus network, railway station and central Bendigo. There is also great access to the shopping, education, child care and medical amenities in neighbouring Flora Hill, Strathdale and Kennington. Imagine too, the friendships and wisdom on offer to your family, by getting to know your neighbours who reside in the Village! How much they’ll delight in your stories and mateship – and you in theirs!

Modernist, trendy, architecturally inspired and timeless; are words that come to mind to attempt to describe this one-of-a-kind home. It’s both refined and robust; the perfect combination for a family home. It can support the wear and tear of daily routine and at the same time maintain its unique beauty!

I think that it’s the many textures and design elements that are the reason for this – there is the beautiful beaded timber front door, masonry walls, hardy render, exposed timber beams, soft carpets, shadow gaps, stainless steel, skylights, feature stone tiling, timber decks, extensive glazing and ambient lighting. The home is a combination of relaxing and functional spaces. Spaces which are a mix of open plan, and closed and snug. All spaces are generously proportioned, and perfectly interconnected.

The addition of a solid timber heater or gas log fire to each of the two living areas would be so ambient, and would add appeal and value. Secure this property for your family and add your own flair and valuable ideas. In doing so, you’ll surely make this an EVEN MORE appealing and valuable property, location and lifestyle!
