5 Bigmore Street, Geelong West, Vic 3218

This classic Victorian home has been renovated and extended whilst keeping the charm of a bygone era.
Symmetry greets you at the gate with lovely old matching clipped trees. The brick paths and box hedging lead you through the rose arbor and to the
leadlight front door. Overhead
the bull nosed verandah is decorated with original iron lace.

Inside, the two front rooms both have timber mantles and cast iron inserts and one has built in cupboards. Down the hall you have a formal dining room with a touch of regency, another open fire place and built in bookshelves and cupboards with pressed tin inserts.
The living room adjoins and is spacious and light thanks to the wall and ceiling windows beckoning you to the garden beyond.
These four rooms have freshly polished floors reflecting more light, beautiful ceiling roses meticulously painted in gorgeous colours and elaborate light fittings. Quality window furnishings are throughout the home.

Double glass doors lead to the decking for outdoor entertaining and the enjoyment of the shady trees and garden.
The kitchen is warm and inviting, crafted from recycled oregon with stools to sit and enjoy a drink while the host is cooking.
The main bathroom has
wonderful timber cupboards the length of the room.
Upstairs the main bedroom has an ensuite and walk in robe. The window seat is in a bay window where you have a view of Corio Bay and Melbourne beyond.
The leafy garden is enhanced with brick paving and edging around the beds and feature trees.
The studio hosts a great window seat within a box bay window of leadlight, a perfect retreat.
Between the studio and garage a fine topiary clipped hedge stands proud near the neat passionfruit vine.
A double brick garage is at the rear of the property as are gates also leading to the rear access of Plunkett Street.

With land of over 550 square metres and a beautifully presented home that will suit many types of buyers, this is truly an outstanding property.
