137 Marong Road, Golden Square, Vic 3555

Set well back from the road, with the convenience of corner drive-through access to a double carport, this property has much to offer. For good reason, triple-fronted cream brick residences such as these are highly sought-after for solid construction and endearing character. Featuring 9' ceilings edged in scalloped cornice, hardwood floors stand on sturdy stumps. A delightfully curvaceous art deco mantle-piece lingers from an original fireplace. Picture rails line walls and pelmets continue to guard against winter's chill. Generously proportioned rooms include 3 enormous bedrooms, plus lounge and dining rooms separated by double glass doors. In a modern kitchen, updated cabinetry surrounds a dishwasher, gas cooktop and electric oven. Though ready for its own makeover, the 4-piece bathroom is in reasonably good condition, so no need to rush. Alongside a second loo is a multi-purpose space, inspiring ideas for extension (STCA).
Vast storage capacity has been built-in, for instance, entire walls of robes/drawers in all bedrooms, 4 doors of cupboards for linen press and laundry shelves. Recently installed solar hot water is boosted by gas, and a gas heater along with a split system supply air conditioning. Fuss-free, the front yard almost takes care of itself. Fully fenced, the backyard needs little more than regular mowing and is a perfect spot to put a pergola, for children to play or to keep pets. A handy garden shed sits here too. Across from Bendigo Stadium, it's just 8 doors to school and 3km from the CBD. An ever-popular classic cream-bricker, positioned to please, this property's prospects are positively sparkling!
