Elevated Mid-Century Home with Sunsets over Castlemaine
Built circa 1965, this home sits high above Castlemaine and faces west. It is 700m from the centre of town, close enough to walk to everything and high enough to see it all laid out below. The sun sets over the rooftops and treetops, and the light fills the home.

The location is the heart of it. You can walk to Castlemaine's shops, cafes and Theatre Royal, and to the railway station for the train to Melbourne. The Burke and Wills Monument and Kalimna Park are close by, and so is Castlemaine Primary School. Most days can start and end on foot, and the car can stay home.

The verandah runs along the front behind a wrought iron balustrade, with room for a table and chairs. Frosted double doors open to it from the living room, so the view reaches indoors too.

Inside, timber floorboards run underfoot. The living and dining room is 5.5 x 4.2m (approx.), with ceiling detail, a period slate mantle surround and a split system. Wide windows look out over the town. The kitchen sits beside it, with an island bench, a pantry, a dishwasher and a gas cooktop with an undermount oven. External access makes it easy to step outside or bring the shopping in.

There are three bedrooms. The main bedroom faces the front and has a split system. The second has a built-in robe. The third is a bed or office with a built-in desk, which suits working from home or study. The updated bathroom has a shower over the bath, a toilet and a vanity, and the laundry has external access.

Beneath the verandah, a covered alfresco area looks onto a drystone wall and a garden of bottlebrush and flowering shrubs. The land is 1219sqm (approx.), with a circular driveway curving up to the house. Below the home are a garage, a workshop and a storage room, and a further shed stands higher on the slope. There is room for tools, projects and everything that does not belong indoors.

A home with views and space, within walking distance of everything Castlemaine has to offer.
