117 Simpsons Road

Eaglehawk VIC 3556

If this home could talk, there would be some very interesting stories to be told. The history records show that the home was built from local stone almost 170 years ago!! The home has had past lives as a restaurant, pub, general store, a gold buying premises, accommodation rooms and since 1914, a private home. You have to take a look at this home to really appreciate the old world charm. The location is just as impressive being only 10 minutes to the CBD of Bendigo and a short walk to the lakes, sporting precinct, indoor pool, shops and all that Eaglehawk has to offer.

Living space is in abundance here, with 3 bedrooms, study, dining/living room, sunroom and a multipurpose room with feature stone walls and fireplace. Stepping through the front door finds a wide entrance hall with two of the bedrooms being located here. Both are large with high ceilings (one has a decorative ceiling) and both have a bay window and ceiling fans. Bedroom 3 has 2 built in robes, another cupboard for further storage and a ceiling fan. The study/home office has some storage cupboards and a sink. This room would also make an ideal craft room, home business, etc.
The kitchen has been updated, it has an electric wall oven in the old chimney, gas cooktop and a good amount of bench space and cabinetry. The dining/lounge is very spacious and comes with a working fire place for those chilly nights in front of the TV. The sunroom is a welcome addition and would be the perfect place to relax with a book or as another dining space. The main bathroom has also been updated and features an oversized walk in shower, vanity, skylight with a separate toilet nearby. The multipurpose room at the back of the home has stone walls and is the ideal space to chill out with a roaring fire and a drink in the winter months. It could also be an indoor mancave. A second toilet, mud room and laundry are also located at the rear of the home. Vinyl plank flooring adorn the floors in the traffic areas and the temperature levels are controlled by ducted heating and cooling. The home has excellent thermal qualities thanks to the extremely thick walls of the original stone structure.
