Built in 1935, this charming weatherboard bungalow sits in an elevated position in tightly-held Quarry Hill. Located adjacent to Quarry Hill Primary School, the property is walking distance to all amenities including Bendigo’s CBD, the train station and La Trobe University. Full of Art Deco-era original detail, including timber flooring, decorative cornice and ceiling roses, doors, picture railing and sash windows, the property offers plenty of appeal.

A neat front garden and brick paved path leads to the front verandah and double original doors open into a formal entry. To one side is a spacious master bedroom with fantastic built-in robes, a ceiling fan and an ensuite with bathtub. Further down the hallway is a second bedroom, also generously proportioned, and a third bedroom can be found at the rear of the home.

To the other side of the entry is a large living room and this opens into a light-filled kitchen and dining space. The fully renovated kitchen features a quality finish with stone benchtops, a Belfast sink, modern appliances and ample storage. A large picture window across the back of the dining space floods the room with plenty of natural light, and a newly renovated bathroom is positioned off to one side.

The back door opens out to steps leading down to the rear garden, and here the surprises continue. Under the house is a fantastic space that could be used as a fourth bedroom, a teenager’s retreat or an additional living area. A single shed with a roller door at the end of the driveway offers secure parking and this building also features a great home office or studio; a laundry; and two further rooms with concrete flooring and power that could serve as a workshop, studio, office or simply provide additional storage space. The private and peaceful back garden also enjoys a garden shed, a chook pen and beautiful established planting, including a large lemon tree.

Ducted evaporative cooling and ducted gas heating
Charming original detail throughout
Fully renovated main bathroom and kitchen
Quality kitchen appliances including dishwasher and 900mm stove with five-burner gas cooktop
