Over summer parts of rural Victoria have been described as resembling the Gobi Desert so to find a lush little garden full of shade with mature trees and loads of shrubs is rare and such a visual delight. In the middle of this garden is a period cottage (c 1890) which has undergone a new renovation (details available) which offers 2 bedrooms, dining room (or cosy living room) with OFP and paneled timber ceiling, spacious bathroom (shower and vanity) with chequer-board flooring opening into the laundry, toilet and extra storage. The kitchen – which has retained the wood-fire oven – extends to a newly built informal living area with charming French doors which open directly into the rear garden. Just seen from this room is a gazebo for extra shade and enjoyment. There is a single garage (power) fitted out for tools and workshop plus a shed which currently houses a dog-grooming business (but could be used for other purposes). Beyond the garden is a large, open yard with direct rear street access which could house a caravan, large shed and vegie area. Extras include evaporate cooling, new dishwasher, single carport, Renai gas heater (gas line taken into property but not connected into house). Here is a delightful, light-filled home with period charm plus contemporary additions and the bonus garden. Please contact agent for inspection details.
