A Federation Era Home, Brought Back to Life
Set on 777sqm (approx.), this fully renovated Federation-era weatherboard home has been brought back to life with care and attention to detail. Completely re-stumped, re-plumbed and re-wired, and insulated in the floor, walls and ceiling, it is ready to move straight into. High ceilings and Baltic pine floors carry the period character throughout.
The living room has an Art Nouveau leadlight window and built-in shelves that wait for books. Beside it, the kitchen and dining area flow together as one open space. Bespoke American beech joinery meets stainless steel benchtops, with an electric cooktop, wall oven and dishwasher. A split system keeps the dining area comfortable, and two sets of double doors open to the wraparound deck and 35sqm alfresco overlooking the garden. Three bedrooms look onto the garden, and two have timber floors and built-in robes. The bathroom pairs dark tiles with warm timber, with glazed-door cabinets set into the panelling and a shower over the bath. The laundry has a second toilet.
The garden is a feature in its own right. David Austin roses climb against the weatherboard, a grape vine covers the pergola and a cottage garden fills the borders. Raised vegetable beds sit beside the brick paving, ornamental trees mark the seasons and lawn stretches out below the deck. A shed completes the garden.
Wesley Hill is increasingly sought after for its walk-to-amenities lifestyle, and this home is right in the middle of it. The Green Folly Nursery and Cafe, a lovely cafe in a beautiful garden setting, is a two-minute walk, and Artisan Grist Bakery is three minutes on foot. Five minutes will take you to the Wesley Hill Saturday Markets, the Albion Hotel for a wine with friends, and the extensive Goldfields walking tracks, which are great for pet owners. Woolworths and central Castlemaine are a 15-minute walk or three minutes by car.
Roses at the window, a vine overhead, the soft light of a Castlemaine afternoon, and a garden to bloom for whoever comes next.
