16 Retreat Road, Flora Hill, VIC 3550

Welcome to this charming retro inspired 3-bedroom weatherboard home in the sought-after area of Flora Hill, mostly in its original condition, offering a wonderful opportunity for renovation or to enjoy the space as is.

From the front veranda, you enter through double doors to a wide entry hall with timber floors. To the left through period correct glass sliding doors, is the inviting lounge with timber floors, a decorative ceiling with a fan, a gas heater in a slate surround (currently not working) and a large window bringing in plenty of natural light. The room also features another set of those period correct double glass sliding doors opening to the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is a true blast from the past, with timber floors, original curved benchtops (very retro), a single sink, and an original Everhot cooker surrounded by black tiles. A gas stove completes the kitchen, which offers great storage and a dine-in area. Adjacent to the kitchen, the laundry features a double trough, a single cupboard, and a vestibule leading to the rear of the home.

There are three bedrooms. Bedroom 1, located to the right of the entry, is carpeted and spacious. Bedroom 2, and 3 at the rear of the home, have timber floors and include a window that overlooks the sunroom or study area. The original bathroom is full of character, featuring a black bath, a shower cubicle, a toilet, and a black-and-white checkered floor. Storage is ample throughout the home, with three doors of storage located in the hall. The home is equipped with ducted floor gas heating for year-round comfort and a Weatherwall heat and cool unit.

Outside, the property offers a sunroom/study with a sliding door that leads from the rear veranda, with views over the rear garden providing a peaceful spot to relax. The home is framed by an elm tree in the front garden, adding a touch of charm to the exterior. The garage/shed is equipped with an automatic roller door, power, and a concrete floor, offering secure parking or storage.

Other features include an outdoor toilet, established gardens and a terracotta roof, making this a great home with lots of potential in a desirable location.

With the popular Flora Hill bakery and an award-winning butcher directly across the road, La Trobe Uni and Bendigo South-East College a short walk away and the CBD of Bendigo just a 5-minute drive away, the property is perfect for first home buyers, singles, couples, small families, tradies looking for a house to flip or a developer wanting to do a 2-lot subdivision (STCA).
