Standing proudly in the heart of Mirboo North, this much-loved four-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is one of the township's most recognisable homes. Believed to date back to circa 1895, this remarkable property is rich in character, history and timeless appeal, occupying a substantial 1,662m² allotment. Lovingly cared for across generations, it presents a rare opportunity to become the next custodian of an iconic local landmark while enjoying the warmth, craftsmanship and enduring charm of a true period home.
Framed by established gardens and a classic bullnose verandah, the original weatherboard façade creates an unforgettable first impression. Step inside to discover a wide timber-lined hallway, soaring high ceilings and beautiful period features that showcase the quality and character of a bygone era.
The flexible floorplan offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, thoughtfully balancing original charm with everyday comfort. The generous north-facing master bedroom is filled with natural light and features an original ornamental fireplace, complemented by an ensuite added approximately 20 years ago. At the front of the home, a second room with decorative windows and a charming window seat provides flexibility as either an additional bedroom or a formal sitting room. Two further bedrooms are positioned toward the rear of the home, while the spacious central bathroom is complete with a shower, bath, vanity and toilet.
At the heart of the home, the light-filled living and dining area provides a welcoming space to gather, complete with split system heating and cooling for year-round comfort. The original country-style kitchen retains its authentic character with an electric stove and oven, skylight, walk-in pantry and direct access to the adjoining sunroom and laundry. From here, sliding glass doors open onto the alfresco area and generous backyard.
Significant preservation works have already been completed, including professional restumping, an upgraded switchboard and a partial replacement of the Colourbond roof, providing a solid foundation for the next owner to further enhance and restore the home while honouring its rich heritage.
Set on an expansive 1,662m² allotment with valuable rear access via Burchell Lane, the property offers outstanding flexibility for the future. Zoned Commercial 1, with potential for subdivision or further development (STCA), it presents a unique opportunity to live, invest, establish a business or unlock the site's long-term potential.
