10 Harrison Street, Bendigo, Vic 3550

Beautifully blending period character with an exceptional contemporary extension, this stylishly renovated home has been thoughtfully transformed to deliver the best of both worlds. Original architectural details, generous proportions and classic sash windows are complemented by a beautifully considered renovation, creating a home that feels both timeless and distinctly modern.

Set behind a beautifully landscaped front garden, the home makes an immediate impression with tiered lawns, river pebble finishes, established trees and a mature hedge creating a wonderfully private and leafy setting. An aggregate pathway and driveway lead to the welcoming entrance, where the original character of the home begins to unfold.

The front of the home retains an abundance of charm, with the entry hallway leading into the formal living area featuring detailed cornicing, brick fireplace with mantle, ceiling fan, carpet and triple sash windows overlooking the garden. A separate study is equally thoughtful, cleverly transforming the original red-brick kitchen fireplace into a built-in desk - a beautiful example of how the renovation has respected the home's history while introducing contemporary functionality.

Three bedrooms are positioned through the original section of the home, including a generous master suite with carpet, ceiling fan, double sash windows and a walk-through robe leading to a beautifully appointed ensuite. Modern finishes include a frameless glass shower with matte black waterfall showerhead and a generous dual vanity with under-bench storage. Bedroom two retains its period charm with triple sash windows and an original enclosed fireplace, while bedroom three includes a double built-in robe, with all bedrooms featuring carpet and ceiling fans.

The main bathroom continues the home's sophisticated renovation, finished with near floor-to-ceiling tiling, wall-mounted matte black tapware, a frameless walk-in shower with recessed wall niche and a separate bath. A separate toilet and powder room add further convenience.

Then the home opens dramatically into the newer extension, where the renovation truly comes into its own. Designed with light-filled contemporary living and entertaining in mind, the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area features beautiful hardwood flooring, striking raked ceiling and a series of sliding doors that draw the garden and outdoor entertaining area into the heart of the home.

The kitchen has been designed with both style and functionality in mind, centred around a stone island and complemented by extensive cabinetry, a walk-in pantry and beautifully integrated detailing. A Miele dishwasher, gas cooktop and oven, wine storage, recessed ceiling, stylish black splashback tiling and matte black tapware combine to create a kitchen that is as practical as it is visually impressive.

The connection to outdoors is immediately felt, with multiple large sliding doors opening directly onto the expansive rear deck. Carefully considered screening provides privacy while adding to the architectural appeal of the space, creating a wonderfully secluded setting for entertaining or relaxing. Steps lead from the deck to the terraced lawn, extending the living space even further.

The home's impressive renovation is matched by an excellent array of practical inclusions, such as the 3.8m x 7m shed with roller door, covered patio beneath the deck and substantial basement storage measuring approximately 5.3m x 4m. A single carport with automatic roller door is situated at the side of the home, with the driveway continuing through to the shed offering excellent vehicle access and additional storage.

Every aspect has been thoughtfully considered, from the preservation of original character through to the quality and design of its contemporary extension. The result is a beautifully cohesive home offering generous living, effortless entertaining and a private inner-city living - equally appealing to professionals, downsizers and young families looking for a home where the renovation is already done – and done exceptionally well!
