Agent Description

The Strand has to be one of Kennington's best kept secrets. Tucked in between Yallambee Drive and Mafeking Street, it is a whisper-quiet, private little street handy to all facilities. Standing tall at number 17, this quality-built, two-storey home has been meticulously loved and cared for by the same family for decades, and it shows. Full of original features, it offers a generous floor plan with four bedrooms plus study, two bathrooms and two extra large living spaces. Ground floor accommodation includes a study and formal lounge/dining rooms flanking the tiled, light-filled entry foyer. The large lounge features brick feature wall and gas heating with both lounge and dining rooms enjoying sliding door access to a North-facing alfresco courtyard. The kitchen boasts solid Blackwood cabinetry with electric cooktop, double oven, dishwasher and walk-in pantry while the family room features built-in wall unit, gas heating and air conditioning. In-house vaccuum is a valuable addition to the property. A rear vestibule/mud room and large laundry include good storage with bench space for a sewing/hobby nook while a rear verandah offers a quiet place to sit and enjoy the serene environs. A beautiful Merbau timber staircase rises to the upper level sleeping quarters with four bedrooms, (BIR) and family bathroom with separate shower room, WC and vanity. The main suite includes walk-through robes to full ensuite. Outside, the auto double garage has direct access to the family room and the private, terraced back garden includes bluestone retaining walls and a unique back fence made of recycled granite bricks salvaged from the old tramways. Located on approx 747m² allotment in one of Bendigo's prestigious pockets, it's close enough to walk to Coles supermarket, pharmacy, doctor and public transport with Strath Village, LaTrobe University and the CBD a 5-minute drive away. With a classical past and a promising future, the 1980 property has escaped restyling and offers purchasers the chance to keep the untainted retro features or undertake a total makeover.
