Set amongst beautiful cottage gardens on approximately 1½ acres, this charming weatherboard home captures the romance of country living while offering the comfort, convenience and thoughtful updates of a much-loved modern home. Filled with beautiful period details including picture rails, Art Deco fretwork, leadlight glass and original Baltic pine floors, the home has been carefully renovated in a way that respects its character while making everyday living wonderfully easy.
With room for a few animals, a gorgeous chook house, established gardens, paddocks and excellent shedding, it offers that enviable country lifestyle without the acreage becoming overwhelming to maintain. Whether you're a family, a couple or simply someone dreaming of a little more space and a slower pace, this is a home with plenty of heart.
• A welcoming cottage entrance sets the scene for what lies beyond, with the character of the weatherboard exterior complemented by established cottage gardens and a sense of privacy and tranquillity from the moment you arrive.
• Step inside and the home's period charm immediately takes centre stage. A grand hallway, original Baltic pine flooring and beautiful picture rails create a wonderful sense of history, while Art Deco fretwork and leadlight glass add the kind of character that simply can't be replicated in a new build.
• The main living area is warm and inviting, with a wood-burning fire creating the perfect country-cottage ambience in winter, complemented by split-system heating and cooling for year-round comfort. A charming window seat provides an irresistible spot to curl up with a book or simply enjoy the outlook.
• The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated, combining the practicality today's buyers expect with the home's timeless personality. Stone benchtops, generous cabinetry, elegant gold fittings, an integrated dishwasher, induction cooktop and 600mm electric oven make this a kitchen designed for both everyday family life and relaxed entertaining.
• With three bedrooms offering comfortable spaces for family or guests. The main bedroom features a walk-through robe, leadlight windows and its own beautifully appointed ensuite, a walk in shower, heated towel rail and underfloor heating, a floating vanity, stone benchtop, gold fixtures and fittings.
• The main bathroom is a beautiful retreat in its own right, featuring a classic slipper bath, double vanity, double mirrors with LED lighting and a heated towel rail - a lovely blend of practical luxury and cottage character.
• The laundry has also been beautifully updated, with stone benchtops and ample cabinetry and bench space, making the everyday jobs considerably more organised and functional.
• Outside, the undercover deck, complete with blinds, provides a wonderful space to enjoy the gardens and changing seasons, while two paddocks, a designated parking area and a beautiful chook house and enclosed yard create plenty of opportunity for chickens and a few much-loved animals.
• A garage with remote roller door, concrete flooring and workshop space provides excellent functionality, while the substantial 12 x 8 shed has already been partly fitted out as a potential man cave or additional living/creative space. An animal shelter adds another practical touch for those embracing the country lifestyle.
• With town water, a concrete septic system, two water tanks providing approximately 110,000 litres of stock water and solar panels. It's a property that has been thoughtfully set up for comfortable, manageable country living.
• Positioned in the welcoming township of Gordon, you're close to the everyday essentials while still enjoying the feeling of having your own little country haven. Gordon offers a local pub, general store, post office and two primary schools, along with convenient bus services to secondary schools in Ballarat. Just approximately 10 minutes away, Ballan provides further amenities and the V/Line train station, making Melbourne accessible in around an hour.
