92 Hargreaves Street, Bendigo, VIC 3550

Inner city buyers will simply not find anything to surpass the space, quality and character of this superbly renovated and extended Victorian-era home.

The property takes pride of place among the heritage houses of lovely, leafy Hargreaves Street. Being just half a block from the Percy and Percy Caf?, 750m from beautiful Lake Weeroona and over the road from The Lakeview Hotel this home will from here on in influence your weekends for the better.

The home presents a deceptive fa?ade to the street. Its sweet steel picket fence and semi-enclosed veranda with plaster columns defies what lies beyond; a contemporary re-imagining of a traditional cottage.

A cherry red door opens to a wide central hallway typical of the era. Off this space are three of four bedrooms, including a main with walk-in-robe and ensuite. Each bedroom has built-in-storage, a ceiling fan, individual split system heating and cooling, downlights and sash windows.

The family bathroom matches the ensuite in style and quality, with both boasting bright white tiles and floating vanities.

The home opens at the back to a light-drenched kitchen and living space that's beautifully connected to the garden beyond.

The all-white kitchen has a stainless-steel wall oven, electric cooktop and dishwasher, along with a pantry cupboard, practical pot drawers and a wide breakfast bar with waterfall benchtop.

Fold-away glass doors in the living room open to the back veranda to facilitate the indoor/outdoor lifestyle we love come summer.

Take the stairs to a private apartment-style second storey. This surprising addition includes a spacious living room and kitchenette with a sink and space for a fridge. A large bedroom has a walk-in-robe and ensuite, plus a glass sliding door that opens to the balcony.

Enjoy multi-generational family living. Gift the space to your resident teen, or simply enjoy the flexibility of having a dedicated guest retreat.

The features continue outside and include a red brick fire pit area, an undercover alfresco space and an area for a spa, with elevated concrete, drainage and power.

A brick three car garage is accessed from the rear lane, while a remote-controlled front gate allows for further secure off street parking.

Banks of solar panels on the roof keep the home efficient, as does an instantaneous gas hot water system.

Walk to work, school, restaurants, retail precincts, Rosalind Park and more from what must be one of the best locations on offer right now. Don't delay your inspection.
