Positioned only minutes walk to Historic High Street is this character stone bungalow (c1936). The magnificent near original home is situated on a large 2425m2 allotment and has dual access from both Grey and Murray Street. The large allotment has fantastic sub-division potential (subject to council consent) for 2 additional allotments which would have bitumen road frontage.
Entry to the property is from Grey Street where you discover the imposing residence which is currently screened behind an established hedge. Entry to the home is via an undercover porch which leads you into the stately home. The home comprises 3 large bedrooms, entry hall, family lounge, formal dining room, kitchen, laundry,
sleep-out and impressive linen press. The home has high insulated ceilings with feature cornices and ornate style, pine timber floors throughout and carpet in the 3 bedrooms.
The home is complimented with a reverse cycle ducted air conditioner, which is a recent addition and a combustion heater in the family lounge. The kitchen has been fully renovated with new cupboards, Caesar stone bench top, stainless steel appliances and large pantry/storage cupboard. The kitchen still has a country feel about it with the original wood oven still in working order. The bathroom has also been modernised with new shower, bath, vanity and appealing unique tiles.
Outside is a low maintenance yard which has been gravelled, within this area is plenty of spots to entertain or have meals. Improvements include a rustic 40′ x 20′ shed with concrete floor and power and a 40′ x 10′ carport attached, the character shed was utilised as a chaff mill in the early 1900′s. Further improvements include a rustic outhouse and array of bird aviaries.
This is your rare opportunity to buy in the town centre with an option to downsize the land and sub-divide. The potential is endless!
Castlemaine is a true Strathalbyn Icon and has plenty of history behind it. Inspection is a must to truly appreciate.
