53 Elizabeth Street, Castlemaine, VIC 3450 A Warm Welcome

This renovated three-bedroom 1950s home successfully combines the warmth of the retro with the urban appeal of the contemporary without losing any of its period integrity. A striking Agave Americana greets you upon arrival, a slice of mid-century Palm Springs. The 805 sqm (approx) property has easy access to Castlemaine via walking tracks or a short drive for retail, restaurants, amenities, schools and the train station to Melbourne or Bendigo.

Beautifully presented inside and out, enter the home through double frosted glass doors into a light-filled central foyer. To one side is the inviting north-facing living room with a black feature wall, a gas heater inset into a period surround with a timber ledge and a wall air-conditioner. On the other side is the sunny main bedroom with north and west-facing large windows and a split system.

Central to the home is the updated industrial-style open-plan kitchen with dining, great for entertaining guests and enjoying family meals. You'll stay nice and cozy with a Nectre solid wood heater and split system. The kitchen features sleek stainless steel cabinetry softened by the timber benchtops, a near-new 900mm Glem gas cooktop with an electric oven, inset into a period surround with tiled detailing. The striking contemporary bathroom includes a freestanding bath, a large shower with two shower heads, a toilet and a wall-hung vanity with an above-the-counter basin. A second bedroom has an outlook onto the beautiful Wisteria-draped pergola to the west with a large built-in open robe, perfect for storage, kid's play space or additional home office. To the rear of the home is a laundry with ample storage and a dining nook with external access to the back garden.

The striking black timber-clad north-facing independent studio/third bedroom offers an additional 7.2m x 3.3m of flexible floor space. It is an ideal home office, artist studio, teenage retreat or guest escape, well-insulated with a split system!

Enjoy long evenings and sunny mornings in the beautifully presented, established low-maintenance garden with gravel pathways, a firepit, Cor-Ten landscape edging and highly productive raised garden beds for growing veggies and herbs. Established trees provide privacy with the help of a mixed planting of hedging plants, including a feijoa hedge.

Fully fenced front and backyards make it a safe space for pets and children. Practical modern improvements include a recently updated continuous flow gas hot water system and underfloor and roof space insulation. Period details include floorboards, ornate plaster and frosted glass.

This home is ready to move in and enjoy the ideal Castlemaine lifestyle.
