161 Forest Street Bendigo VIC
PERIOD PERFECTION ON FOREST
Located a heartbeat from the city centre in a neighbourhood of grand homes, this solid brick Victorian residence, circa 1902, luxuriates on a huge block approximately 1029 m² with convenient two-street access.
Retained period features include high, detailed ceilings and cornice, polished timber floors, original open fireplaces with timber over mantles and decorative hallway arch. While the pièces de résistance are the stunning tall, art deco lead light-glazed windows gracing the front rooms.
Generous accommodation encompasses five big bedrooms plus study, two modern bathrooms and two living areas. The large main suite includes a wall of robes and new ensuite, the study is off the grand side entry foyer while remaining bedrooms and second bathroom all open off the central hallway.
Spacious formal lounge featuring a wood heater set in the open fireplace lies beside the side entry vestibule with the open-plan kitchen/meals/living areas opposite. The family living space has a sweet box bay window beside built-in cabinetry surrounding a cosy gas-log fire – the perfect spot for that first coffee of the morning.
The kitchen is a stunner any chef would be proud to own with wide Neolith Stone benches and splash backs, a full suite of Miele appliances including convection and steam ovens with warming drawer, black stone double sink with Zip tap for instant chilled or boiling water while tall pantry cupboards include appliance and baking shelves with fully-fitted soft-close drawers.
Big windows fill the whole area with abundant light and provide uninterrupted views of the sparkling pool at the end of the garden behind glass fencing.
Doing the laundry will be a pleasure in the room filled with hampers, benches, cupboards and access to a fenced service area hiding the clothesline, rainwater tank and vegetable/herb gardens.
Glorious gardens include brick-paved paths, ivy covered walls, old roses and large, private, vine draped pergola with limestone paving overlooking the pool and back lawns.
Other essentials include brand new ducted heating and cooling unit, attic storage space, wine cellar with racking and rear access to lock-up double garage and four car carport from Acacia Street.
The stunning property has it all - street appeal, period grace, family space and an enviable location with Arts Precinct, various schooling options, beautiful Rosalind park and sporting facilities in the immediate neighbourhood.
