Stunning Weatherboard
This charming 1950s weatherboard home was relocated from Melbourne’s inner city twelve years ago and meticulously restored and extended resulting in a virtual rebuild using only quality materials. Renovations included new plumbing, wiring, plasterwork, truss roof conversion and the addition of an Edwardian style jarrah return verandah using five inch cypress posts to match the new boxed sash windows. Lovingly maintained; the façade has been recently painted adding to the home’s existing strong curb appeal.

With a mix of polished cypress pine and rare Oak war board hardwood floors, ornate corning, archways and ceiling roses, beautiful timber mantle with tiled hearth, plush pure wool carpets, Gainsborough door handles, latches, fans and period lighting and new light-touch double glazed sash windows throughout; the home provides period features with modern scaling and functionality.

The original front section of the home includes the master suite, formal living with timber mantle and wood burner and open plan kitchen-diner. No expense has been spared in the spacious master bedroom with walk in robe and luxurious ensuite featuring his and her vanities, toilet, corner spa bath and shower.

The light filled U shaped kitchen with practical stone top island bench and large dining area is perfect for the family that loves to cook, entertain and share meals together. With marble look benchtops, extensive storage, glass splashback, gas cooktop and electric oven and unique corner double sink with dual aspect window.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the large second living room and raised rear timber deck beyond via elegant French doors. The family room forms the hub of the home providing direct access to the remaining two double bedrooms with built in robes, crisp white family bathroom with corner timber vanity, bath and shower, laundry and separate toilet.

The property includes a two car garage incorporating a workshop with concrete floor and power, a two car carport with additional secure camper trailer storage on the huge 1221m2 block. The shady verandahs, deck and built in-brick fire pit create outdoor spaces that can be enjoyed all year round.

Further features include:
•Double glazed sash windows with decorative trim & sill (easy glide mechanism)
•Kleen Air Wood Burner, Novo wall mounted heating & evaporative cooling
•Fully insulated roof and wall cavities & solid internal doors throughout
•Town water, bottled gas & gas instant hot water
•Red gum and emu heritage woven wire front fence with single & double gate access
•5,000 gallon water storage tank for garden irrigation
•Separate garden and storage sheds with concrete floor
•Raised vegetable garden
•Low maintenance drought tolerant cottage garden

Ideally located only a short drive from Bendigo and Lake Eppalock and in walking distance to public transport, schools and shops; including the family friendly Axedale Tavern and 18 hole Axedale Golf Course with spectacular river views - this is a unique opportunity not to be missed.
