Nestled behind a traditional picket fence and lovingly cultivated cottage garden; is this character filled family home. The cottage garden features colourful purple iris, daffodils, roses, lavender, ornamental pears and grape vine. Located in walking distance to Strathfieldsaye shops and schools and ten minutes to the Bendigo CBD; this property has all of the advantages of country living with true city convenience. The expansive 2407 m2 block includes unobstructed rural vistas of open farm land to the front and rear of the dwelling.
In keeping with the country design theme, the inclusion of a front verandah, French doors, divided-light windows and wood fire creates a warm, welcoming ambience. The clever layout creates two distinct accommodation zones with the open plan living / dining / kitchen at the heart of the home. The master bedroom with ensuite and study (or potential nursery) is positioned at the front of the property; with the remaining three bedrooms and family bathroom to the rear. Three bedrooms include built in robes with provision for television connections in the second double sized bedroom and master. The recently modernised family bathroom includes crisp white tiling, spa bath, vanity and toilet.

The use of neutral tones in the paintwork, floating bamboo flooring, carpeting and window treatments creates a harmonious flow throughout the property. The living, dining and kitchen areas merge into one open plan space that’s perfect for keeping an eye on young ones at play or keeping the family connected. Comfort is assured through the provision of a Panasonic split system, ceiling fan and solid fuel heating in the main living space.

The elegant light filled provincial style kitchen has been designed around a set of French doors that open out to a private patio overlooking the cottage garden; providing the perfect space to relax and enjoy the fruits of your labour. The kitchen features wooden and marble look bench tops with double sink, extensive country style cabinetry and Ariston dishwasher, Baumatic electric cooktop and Bosch electric oven.

A second set of French doors lead out from the living space to the elevated rear timber deck. The view out to the huge rear yard is framed by established climbing plants and overlooks the herb garden and acreage beyond.
