1 Moscript Street, Campbells Creek, Vic 3451

Set back and elevated on 1708sqm (approx.), this two-bedroom period home has been well lived in and well cared for. A sealed driveway flanked by a large established cypress, a front verandah with brick piers, and established gardens frame the arrival, and there is considerably more going on than is apparent from the street.

Inside, high ceilings and ornate plaster cornices and ceiling roses carry through the main rooms, well-preserved and a genuine feature of the house. Period floorboards run throughout. The front-facing lounge has a gas wall heater set into a curved art deco-style period surround. It opens directly to the dining room, where a functional antique wood stove sits in a brick surround. The kitchen has period cabinetry and a freestanding gas cooktop with oven. A sunroom at the rear opens onto a generous north-facing timber deck via double doors, overlooking the back garden and pool.

Two bedrooms: the main faces the front with large double hung windows and an ornate plaster ceiling; the second bedroom is north-facing, overlooking the side garden. A central bathroom with a shower, vanity and toilet.

The back section of the property is the real point of difference. A pool deck and separate patio surround a 5.2 x 3.4m pool, and alongside sits the pool room, a substantial 29sqm separate structure with timber floors and direct access to the deck. Connected to power, it works as a guest room, teen retreat, studio, or home office. The garden is established with an evergreen magnolia, roses, mixed natives and seasonal planting, brick-edged beds and open lawn. Chook pen and run, water tank, and a generous open lawn to the front of the property.

A concrete shared pathway connects directly to Castlemaine. The bus stop is directly across the road. For first home buyers or investors, the combination of period character, usable land, and a poolside structure at this price point in this corridor is uncommon at any level of the market.
