This fully renovated circa 1930s Californian bungalow home features roughcast render to the upper brickwork, matching roof gables with timber-lined eaves, wide barge boards, finial trims and tapered pillars supporting the side verandah leading to the ornate front entry. Inside, the residence features more style elements of the era with high ceilings, polished timber floors, casement windows, an open fireplace with timber surround and a quirky lead-light porthole window to the living room. A lead-light glazed bay window overlooking the front garden graces the oversized main bedroom with an ample built-in robe. The central living room has matching lead-light windows, a gas heater and a split system air con. The second bedroom, big bathroom with in situ shower, bath, twin vanity and separate WC, the laundry and a study complete the original section. A split-level extension accommodates the spacious kitchen and meals area, where north-facing windows filter natural light into every corner. Catering for the family will be second nature with a 900mm stainless steel dual-fuel cooker, a double pantry and a custom-built, period-style timber-topped island bench incorporating the sink, storage and a dishwasher. From here, move through bifold doors to the crazy-paved alfresco and side deck for relaxed outdoor living and entertaining. A side driveway provides access to the double garage with an attached workshop. Attractive landscaping includes a specimen palm tree taking centre stage in the back lawn with an ornamental pear tree, pretty garden beds and crazy paved paths behind the front picket fence. The approx. 544 m² lot in one of Bendigo's golden areas is close to the St John of God medical precinct, schools and the CBD, making it perfect for owner occupiers, investors or use as medical rooms (STCA).
